Using external speakers or headphones
Your computer is equipped with a full stereo sound system 
with internal speakers. Instead of using the internal speakers, 
you can connect headphones or a pair of external stereo 
speakers.
Before putting on headphones to listen to an audio CD, turn 
the volume dial down, and do not set the volume too high 
when using the headphones. Continuous exposure to loud 
sound can harm your hearing.
TECHNICAL NOTE: Use amplified speakers that require an 
external power source. Other types of speakers will be 
inadequate to produce sound from the computer.
To play back sound files through external speakers or 
headphones:
1
Locate the headphone jack on the computer.
2
Using any necessary adapters, plug the cable from the 
headphones or external speakers into the headphone jack. 
The headphone jack requires a 16-ohm stereo mini-jack.
To adjust the volume:
For external speakers, use the volume controls on each 
speaker.
For headphones, use the computer’s volume control dial.
