If you want to listen to audio CDs on your CD-ROM drive, you can also 
use the headphones jack and the volume control on the front of the 
CD-ROM drive. To access these controls: 

1

Remove the CD-ROM drive’s front filler by carefully pulling it off.

2

Replace it with the generic filler. 

You will find a spare generic filler inside your PC Workstation (refer to 
page 46).
