The Middle East, or Africa
IMPORTANT
:
The modem cable included with the computer is
approved for a specific country. If you plan to travel with the
computer, refer to “Using a Country-Specific Modem Cable,” the
next section, for information about purchasing additional country-
specific modem cables.
NOTE:
If your computer was originally purchased in North
America, Latin America, Japan, or Hong Kong, refer to
“International Modem Adapter Requirements” later in this
chapter.
NOTE:
The modem is equipped with Digital Line Guard, a feature
that protects the modem if it is accidentally plugged into a Digital
PBX system with too much power on the line. If the modem is
plugged into a digital line that might damage the modem, the
following error message is displayed on the screen:
DIGITAL LINE NO DIALTONE
If the modem is plugged into a digital line that would not damage
the modem, the modem times out and the following error message
is displayed on the screen:
NO DIALTONE
NOTE:
You do not have to turn the computer on or place it in
Suspend to connect the modem.
To connect the modem to a standard telephone wall jack in
Europe, the Middle East, or Africa:
1
Connect the country-specific modem to the 25-pin connector
on the right side of the computer.

wall jack.
