Headphones
Before plugging in or unplugging the headphones, reduce the vol- ume.
Be sure your headphones have a 3.5 mm (1/8") diameter plug and impedance between 16 and 50 ohms. The recommended imped- ance is 32 ohms.
Plugging in the headphones disconnects the speakers automati- cally. Adjust the volume using the VOLUME control.
