* i.LINK is a trademark of Sony used only to designate that a product contains an IEEE 1394
connection. The i.LINK connection may vary, depending on the software applications, oper-
ating system and compatible i.LINK devices. All products with an i.LINK connection may
not communicate with each other. Refer to the documentation that came with your compati-
ble i.LINK device for information on operating conditions and proper connection. Before
connecting compatible i.LINK PC peripherals to your system, such as a CD-RW or hard disk
drive, confirm their operating system compatibility and required operating conditions.
✍
Do not set the i.LINK network switch when the computer is on. This causes the
computer to malfunction.
Set the i.LINK network switch after removing all cables connected to the docking
station.
