not wish to use it, go to step 14.

MPC-2 connector

The audio cable is used only for hearing music CDs through your computer’s sound system. If you do not have a sound board in your computer, you can still hear music CDs through speakers or earphones attached to the front of the CD-Writer Plus drive.

When the CD-Writer Plus drive records music or data, it uses the data cable, not the audio cable.

Locate your sound board’s audio cable, if any.

NOTE: There are many different types of audio cables and connectors. The type of cable depends on the type of sound board you have. To work with the CD- Writer Plus drive, the cable must have an MPC-2 connector. If you need to purchase an audio cable, contact your local computer hardware dealer. You can also contact Pacific InterConnections, USA, at 1-800-706-0510 or at 408-654- 0234. Be sure to identify the type of sound board you have and specify that you require an MPC-2 connector.

Connect your sound board’s audio cable, if any, to the back of the CD- Writer.
