Media Base Setup Guide 5

CAUTION: Safety Instructions

Use the following safety guidelines to help ensure your own personal safety and to help protect your device (computer, port

replicator, media base, docking station, and similar devices) and working environment from potential damage.

SAFETY: General Safety

Observe the following safe-handling guidelines to ensure personal safety:

• When setting up the device for work, place it on a level surface.

• Do not attempt to service the device yourself, except as explained in your Dell™ documentation or in instructions otherwise

provided to you by Dell. Always follow installation and service instructions closely.

• To help avoid the potential hazard of electric shock, do not connect or disconnect any cables or perform maintenance or

reconfiguration of this product during an electrical storm. Do not use your media base during an electrical storm unless all

cables have been disconnected and the computer is operating on battery power.

• If your device includes an integrated or optional (PC Card) modem, disconnect the modem cable if an electrical storm is

approaching to avoid the remote risk of electric shock from lightning via the telephone line.

• Do not push any objects into air vents or openings of your device. Doing so can cause fire or electric shock by shorting out

interior components.

• Keep your device away from radiators and heat sources. Also, do not block cooling vents. Avoid placing loose papers

underneath your device; do not place your device in a closed-in wall unit or on a bed, sofa, or rug.

• Do not use your device in a wet environment, for example, near a bath tub, sink, or swimming pool or in a wet basement.

• Do not spill food or liquids on your computer.

• Before you clean your device, disconnect the device from the electrical outlet. Clean your device with a soft cloth dampened

with water. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners, which may contain flammable substances.

• Ensure that nothing rests on your AC adapter’s power cable and that the cable is not located where it can be tripped over or

stepped on.

• Do not store your computer in a low-airflow environment, such as a carrying case or a closed briefcase, while the computer is

turned on. Restricting airflow can damage the computer or cause a fire.

• Do not allow your portable computer to operate with the base resting directly on exposed skin for extended periods of time.

The surface temperature of the base will rise during normal operation (particularly when AC power is present). Allowing

sustained contact with exposed skin can cause discomfort or, eventually, a burn.

• PC Cards may become very warm during normal operation. Use care when removing PC Cards after their continuous

operation.

• This device may contain Optical Disk Drives (ODD), CD-ROM, CDR/W, DVD, etc., which have built-in laser devices.

These ODDs comply with safety requirements and are classified as "Class 1 Laser Products," under US DHHS Standard and

EN/IEC60825-1 Laser Safety Standard. These ODDs contain no user adjustments or serviceable or replaceable parts. To

prevent any risk of exposure to laser radiation, do not disable or open ODD assembly for any reason.

WARNING:

The cord on this product contains lead, a chemical known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other

reproductive harm.

Wash hands after handling.

6 Media Base Setup Guide

SAFETY: Power Safety

• If this product is provided with a 3-prong power cable, be sure to plug it into a properly grounded power source in order to

help prevent electric shock. Do not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong from the power cable plug. If you use a

power extension cable, use the appropriate type to mate with the adapter power cable plug.

• If you use an extension power cable with your AC adapter, ensure that the total ampere rating of the products plugged in to

the extension power cable does not exceed the ampere rating of the extension cable.

• Use only the Dell-provided AC adapter approved for use with this device. Use of another AC adapter may cause a fire or

explosion. See your User’s Guide or Owner’s Manual for AC adapter electrical ratings.

• If you are using a multiple-outlet power strip, use caution when plugging the AC adapter’s power cable into the power strip.

Some power strips may allow you to insert the plug incorrectly. Incorrect insertion of the power plug could result in

permanent damage to your device, as well as risk of electric shock and/or fire. Ensure that the ground prong of the power

plug is inserted into the mating ground contact of the power strip.

• Before you connect the device to an electrical outlet, check the AC adapter voltage rating to ensure that the required voltage

and frequency match the available power source.

• To remove the computer from all power sources, turn the computer off, disconnect the AC adapter from the electrical

outlet, and remove any battery installed in the battery bay or module bay.

• Place the AC adapter in a ventilated area, such as a desk top or on the floor, when you use it to run the computer or to charge

the battery. Do not cover the AC adapter with papers or other items that will reduce cooling; also, do not use the AC adapter

inside a carrying case.

• The AC adapter may become hot during normal operation of your computer. Use care when handling the adapter during or

immediately after operation.

• Norway and Sweden: Connect the power cable to a grounded electrical outlet only.

• Japan Only: Use only the Dell-provided AC power cable with the AC adapter. Use of any other power cable may damage the

device or AC adapter or may present risk of fire or electric shock.

Equipment Protection Instructions

Observe the following safe-handling guidelines to prevent damage to your equipment:

NOTICE: When taking the computer from low-temperature conditions into a warmer environment or from high-temperature

conditions into a cooler environment, allow the computer to acclimate to room temperature and for any condensation that may

have formed to evaporate before turning on power to avoid damage to the computer.

• Protect your device from environmental hazards such as dirt, dust, food, liquids, temperature extremes, and overexposure to

sunlight.

• Keep the device away from direct or excessive moisture and extremely hot or cold temperatures to ensure that the computer

is used within the specified operating range.

• Leave a 10.2 cm (4 in) minimum clearance on all vented sides of the device to permit the airflow required for proper

ventilation.

• Do not restrict airflow into the device by blocking any vents or air intakes.

CAUTION: When preparing your AC adapter for travel, wrap both of the cords around the adapter in the same direction as

shown in the following picture. Failure to wrap the cords in the correct direction can result in damage to the cords not covered

by the adapter warranty. Never use an AC adapter that shows signs of damage or excessive wear.

Media Base Setup Guide 7

Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) events can harm electronic components inside your computer. Under certain conditions, ESD may

build up on your body or an object, such as a peripheral, and then discharge into another object, such as your computer. To prevent

ESD damage, you should discharge static electricity from your body before you interact with any of your computer’s internal

electronic components, such as a memory module. You can protect against ESD by touching a metal grounded object (such as an

unpainted metal surface on your computer’s I/O panel) before you interact with anything electronic. When connecting a

peripheral (including handheld digital assistants) to your computer, you should always ground both yourself and the peripheral

before connecting it to the computer. In addition, as you work inside the computer, periodically touch an I/O connector to remove

any static charge your body may have accumulated.

You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge:

• When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, do not remove the component from the antistatic

packing material until you are ready to install the component. Just before unwrapping the antistatic package, be sure to

discharge static electricity from your body.

• When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic container or packaging.

• Handle all electrostatic sensitive components in a static-safe area. If possible, use antistatic floor pads and work bench pads.
