11. The Sound System
11.1. External Audio Connections
Your Notebook has an integrated stereo speaker so you can always reproduce
sound without additional devices. Using the external connections provides you
with an ideal opportunity to connect your Notebook to external devices.
The
Fn +
and
Fn +
keyboard shortcut enables you to adjust the volume.
WARNING!
Listening to a device at high volumes for an extended peri-
od via headphones/earphones can damage your hearing.
Excessive volume when using headphones or earphones
can damage your hearing. Before pressing play, set the
volume to the lowest setting. Start playback and increase
the volume to a comfortable level. Changing the basic set-
tings of the equaliser can also increase the volume and
thus cause permanent damage to your hearing. Chang-
ing the drivers, software, equaliser, operating system, etc.,
can also lead to an increase in the volume and thus cause
permanent damage to your hearing.
