Audio and Video
Using the Microphone Input Jack
When an external microphone is connected to the notebook, the
notebook microphone is disabled.
When connecting a microphone to the microphone input jack,
use a monaural microphone with a 3.5-mm plug.
Using the Audio Line-Out Jack
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, adjust the
volume before putting on headphones or a headset.
CAUTION: To prevent possible damage to an external device, do
not plug a single-sound channel (monaural) connector into the
audio line-out jack.
When connecting a device to the audio line-out jack, use only a
3.5-mm stereo plug. For best sound quality, use 24-ohm to 32-
ohm headphones.
When an external audio device is connected to the audio-out
jack, the notebook stereo speaker is disabled.
Using Video Features
The notebook features an S-Video out jack. An S-Video cable
attaches the notebook to an optional S-Video device, such as a
television, VCR, camcorder, overhead projector, or video
capture card. The notebook supports one S-Video device
connected to the S-Video out jack while simultaneously
supporting an image on the notebook display and on any other
supported external display.
