WARNING Always turn the volume down before connecting headphones or speakers, to

avoid discomfort from unexpected noise or static. Listening to loud sounds for

prolonged periods of time may permanently damage your hearing. Before

putting on headphones, place them around your neck and turn the volume

down. When you put on the headphones, slowly increase the volume until you

find a comfortable listening level. When you hear comfortably and clearly,

without distortion, leave the volume control in that position.

NOTE Your PC BootROM supports PXE (Preboot Execution Environment). This

protocol is enabled by selecting Start from Network/Boot from LAN in your PC’s Setup

program, accessed by pressing Del or F2 at Start-up.
