Getting to Know Your Computer

Using Your Modem

Prior to using your internal modem, you must ensure the following:

·The modem is properly configured for the country in which it will be used via the Country Select Utility, and

·The appropriate adapter cable is supplied. A modem adapter cable is supplied for the country in which the notebook computer was purchased. If you wish to use the notebook’s modem in a country other than the one in which the notebook was purchased, contact your authorized Compaq reseller or go to www.compaq.com (search for: Telecom Network Approvals) for more information on obtaining country specific adapter plugs.

____________________ User Responsibility ______________________

The modem installed in this system requires the user to select the correct country profile before initiating a modem dial-up connection. The preinstalled Country Select utility is used to ensure that your modem will operate as intended and in compliance with national telecommunication regulations/laws. When traveling from country to country you must use the Country Select utility to reconfigure the modem for a new location. Failure to do so may cause the modem to not function properly and invalidate the approval.
