Hint
You can use a wireless network connection to connect to the Internet without using an Ethernet cable.
For details, see "Adjusting network settings" (
page 28).
Caution
Do not connect a standard telephone line or other types of cords or cables that are not compatible
with the system directly to the LAN connector on the system, as this may cause heat build-up, fire
or malfunction.
Connect the AC power cord
After plugging the AC power cord into the electrical outlet, the power indicator on the
PS3™ system will light up in solid red ( page 21).
Caution
Do not plug the AC power cord for the system into an electrical outlet until you have made all other
connections.
Some regions and countries may use a
different electrical outlet plug from the
one illustrated.
