Safety Instructions

Use the following safety guidelines to help protect your computer system

from potential damage and to ensure your own personal safety.

When Working Inside Your Computer

Before you remove the computer cover, perform the following steps in the

sequence indicated.

NOTICE: Do not attempt to service the computer yourself, except as

explained in your online Dell documentation or otherwise provided to you.

Always follow installation and service instructions closely.

CAUTION: There is a danger of a new battery exploding if it is

incorrectly installed. Replace the battery only with the same or

equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used

batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

1

Turn off your computer and any peripherals.

2

Ground yourself by touching an unpainted metal surface on the

chassis, such as the metal around the card-slot openings at the back of

the computer, before touching anything inside your computer.

While you work, periodically touch an unpainted metal surface on the

computer chassis to dissipate any static electricity that might harm

internal components.

12 Setup and Quick Reference Guide

www.dell.com | support.dell.com

3

Disconnect your computer and peripherals from their power sources.

Also, disconnect any telephone or telecommunication lines from the

computer.

Doing so reduces the potential for personal injury or shock.

In addition, take note of these safety guidelines when appropriate:

• To avoid shorting out your computer when disconnecting a network

cable, first unplug the cable from the network interface controller

(NIC) on the back of your computer, and then from the network jack

on the wall. When reconnecting a network cable to your computer,

first plug the cable into the network jack, and then into the NIC.

• When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its strain-

relief loop, not on the cable itself. Some cables have a connector with

locking tabs; if you are disconnecting this type of cable, press in on the

locking tabs before disconnecting the cable. As you pull connectors

apart, keep them evenly aligned to avoid bending any connector pins.

Also, before you connect a cable, make sure both connectors are

correctly oriented and aligned.

• Handle components and cards with care. Do not touch the

components or contacts on a card. Hold a card by its edges or by its

metal mounting bracket. Hold a component such as a microprocessor

chip by its edges, not by its pins.

When Using Your Computer System

As you use your computer system, observe the following safety guidelines.

CAUTION: Do not operate your computer system with any cover(s)

(including computer covers, bezels, filler brackets, and front-

panel inserts) removed.

• To help avoid damaging your computer, be sure the voltage selection

switch on the power supply is set to match the AC power available at

your location:

– 115 volts (V)/60 hertz (Hz) in most of North and South America

and some Far Eastern countries such as South Korea and Taiwan

– 100 V/50 Hz in eastern Japan and 100 V/60 Hz in western Japan

Setup and Quick Reference Guide 13

NOTE: The voltage selection switch must be set to the 115V position

even though the AC supply in Japan is 100 V.

– 230 V/50 Hz in most of Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East

Also be sure your monitor and attached peripherals are electrically

rated to operate with the AC power available in your location.

NOTE: Auto-select power supplies do not require a voltage selection

switch. Your power supply may not have this switch.

• To help prevent electric shock, plug the computer and peripheral

power cables into properly grounded power sources. These cables are

equipped with three-prong plugs to help ensure proper grounding. Do

not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong from a cable. If

you must use an extension cable, use a three-wire cable with properly

grounded plugs.

• Before working inside the computer, unplug the system to help prevent

electric shock or system board damage. Certain system board

components continue to receive power any time the computer is

connected to AC power.

• To help avoid possible damage to the system board, wait 15 seconds

after unplugging the system before disconnecting a device from the

computer.

NOTICE: Observe when the auxiliary power light-emitting diode (LED)

indicator on the system board turns off to verify that system power is off (see

your

User’s Guide

for the location of this LED).

14 Setup and Quick Reference Guide

www.dell.com | support.dell.com

• To help protect your computer system from sudden, transient

increases and decreases in electrical power, use a surge suppressor, line

conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).

• Be sure nothing rests on your computer system’s cables and that the

cables are not located where they can be stepped on or tripped over.

• Do not spill food or liquids on your computer. If the computer gets

wet, consult your User’s Guide.

• Do not push any objects into the openings of your computer. Doing so

can cause fire or electric shock by shorting out interior components.

• Keep your computer away from radiators and heat sources. Also, do not

block cooling vents. Avoid placing loose papers underneath your

computer; do not place your computer in a closed-in wall unit or on a

bed, sofa, or rug.

Ergonomic Computing Habits

CAUTION: Improper or prolonged keyboard use may result in

injury.

CAUTION: Viewing the monitor screen for extended periods of

time may result in eye strain.

For comfort and efficiency, observe the ergonomic guidelines in your

User’s Guide when setting up and using your computer system.

Regulatory Information

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is any signal or emission, radiated in

free space or conducted along power or signal leads, that endangers the

functioning of a radio navigation or other safety service or seriously

degrades, obstructs, or repeatedly interrupts a licensed radio

communications service.

Your Dell computer system is designed to comply with applicable

regulations regarding EMI. Changes or modifications not expressly

approved by Dell could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

NOTE: Additional regulatory information regarding your system can be found

in your

User’s Guide
