Connecting external speakers or headphones
To attach an external stereo output device:
1
Locate the headphone jack near the front of the right side of 
the computer.
2
Using any necessary adapters, plug the cable from the 
external audio device into the headphone jack. The 
headphone jack requires a 3.5-mm, 16-ohm stereo jack.
When the headphone is inserted, the internal speakers are 
automatically disabled.
Before playing an audio CD, turn the volume down. Playing 
the CD at maximum volume could damage your ears. To turn 
the volume down, use the Volume Control switch or access the 
Volume Control program (click Start, All Programs, 
Accessories, Entertainment, Volume Control).
