PROBLEM: I can’t hear sound from speakers that I connected.
ACTIONS:
•Check the volume level.
•Check that Mute is not enabled. Press [Fn]+[F6] to toggle the Mute setting.
•Are the speakers connected? Make sure the cord is plugged into the external speaker jack. The speaker jack is on the rear side of the system; the speaker jack is to the left as you face the rear of the system.
•Are you using the correct connector? The WinBook notebook external speaker connector is compatible with a 3.5mm stereo audio plug. If you are using a different plug, it may not be compatible.
•Inspect the cord for wear or damage. Usually you will find this at the ends of the cable where connectors are attached. If you find damage to the cord, repair or replace the cord, then try again.
•Most external speakers have their own volume control. Make sure that this volume control is not turned all the way down.
•Some external speakers require a source of power in order to work correctly. Usually these are referred to as “powered speakers”. If you are using powered speakers, you will have to either install batteries or plug them into an AC outlet to get them to work correctly. You may also have to turn the speakers on with a switch to get them to work properly. Consult your external speaker manual for more details.
