 CAUTION

HEARING LOSS

Turn the sound volume level of the PC unit to the minimum when you connect a headphone or
microphone, or it may cause device failure or undesirable influence to your audibility by
harmful noise.

3

Built-in Microphone

You can record sound with this microphone.

Critical Point

You may experience feedback noise when you use music software and other software that
uses simultaneously the microphone and speakers. In this case, adjust the sound volume or
use a headphone or an external microphone available in stores. And set the microphone at
“mute” position when you do not use it.
Do not close the LCD when you use the built-in microphone to avoid feedback noise.
The recorded sound from the built-in microphone may not clear when the distance or the
direction of the sound source is not appropriate. We recommend you to use an external
microphone to record sound clearly.

!

Mic-in Jack

It is the terminal to connect an external microphone to record sound (monaural, 3.5-mm mini
plug type). However, you cannot use some microphone in the market (ex. dynamic microphones).
Please check its connectivity before purchase.
