Notes on using the built-in accelerometer You cannot change the computer screen orientation while your VAIO computer is connected to an external display. If you connect the computer to an external display while using the computer in portrait orientation, the computer screen will automatically change to landscape (horizontal) orientation. The computer screen may become distorted if you change the computer screen orientation while the screen saver is activated. Some apps do not support portrait orientation and may not work correctly. In this case, use your VAIO computer in landscape orientation. Notes on using the built-in digital compass The built-in digital compass works by detecting a magnetic direction. Do not rely solely on the location information the built-in digital compass provides. The accuracy of the digital compass can be easily affected by magnetic interference and may not work properly, particularly in the following locations: Inside an elevator or a room built with ferrous materials, such as iron frames or reinforced concrete Near a reinforced concrete structure, such as a footbridge or a concourse of an airport or train station Near or inside a train or a car Near a transformer on the ground or high-voltage power lines Near a metallic product, such as a metal frame desk or metallic furniture Near a material that has a high level of magnetic interference, such as a magnet, a magnetic holder, or speakers The supplied pen (Digitizer Stylus) contains a magnet. If you bring the pen close to the magnetometer ( ) on your VAIO computer or put it on the keyboard near the magnetometer, the digital compass may not work properly. (Digitizer Stylus supplied models) Adjusting the angle of the LCD screen may reduce the accuracy of the built-in digital compass; however, this is normal and does not indicate a malfunction. In 315
