Connecting a Telephone Line

Connecting a Telephone Line

You need to connect a telephone line to use online services and the Internet.

In order to register your Sony VAIO® computer, register your software online, and use Sony Customer Support, you must connect the computer to a telephone line.

1Gently peel back the rubber telephone jack cover. Pulling the telephone jack cover too hard or too far could damage it.

Do not plug the telephone cable into the Ethernet port located to the left of the telephone jack as this may damage your computer.

2Plug one end of the telephone cable into the telephone jack, under the telephone jack cover. Make sure you insert the telephone cable from the rear of the computer and that the modular jack clicks into place.

3Plug the other end into the wall jack.

Your computer does not work with party lines, cannot be connected to a coin-operated telephone, and may not work with multiple telephone lines or a private branch exchange (PBX). Some of these connections might result in excess electrical current and could cause a malfunction in the internal modem.
