Using the Audio-Out (Headphone) Jack

Å
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, adjust the volume
before putting on headphones.

CAUTION: To prevent possible damage to an external device, do not
plug a monaural (single sound channel) plug into the audio-out jack.
The audio-out jack, sometimes called a headphone jack, connects
optional headphones or externally-powered stereo speakers. The
audio-out jack, identified in the following illustration, is also used
to connect the audio functions of an audio/video device such as a
television or VCR.
When you connect a device to the audio-out jack, use only a
3.5-mm plug.
When a device is connected to the audio-out jack, the internal
speakers are disabled.
