Dell Contact Numbers

When you need to contact Dell, use the telephone num- bers and codes provided in Tables 5-2 and 5-3. Table 5-2 provides the various codes required to make long- distance and international calls. Table 5-3 provides local telephone numbers, area codes, and toll-free numbers, if applicable, for each department or service available in various countries around the world. If you are making a direct-dialed call to a location outside of your local tele- phone service area, determine which codes to use (if any) in Table 5-2 in addition to the local numbers provided in Table 5-3. For example, to place an international call from Paris, France to Bracknell, England, dial the inter- national access code for France followed by the country code for the U.K., the city code for Bracknell, and then the local number as shown in the following illustration.

00		44		1344		________
International			Country
					City Code	Local
Access Code			Code			Number
					(Bracknell)
	(in France)		(for U.K.)

To place a long-distance call within your own country, use area codes instead of international access codes, country codes, and city codes. For example, to call Paris, France from Montpellier, France, dial the area code plus the local number as shown in the following illustration.

01________

Area Code	Local
(for Paris from
	Number
outside Paris)

The codes required depend on where you are calling from as well as the destination of your call; in addition, each country has a different dialing protocol. If you need assis- tance in determining which codes to use, contact a local or an international operator.

NOTE: Toll-free numbers are for use only within the country for which they are listed. Area codes are most often used to call long distance within your own country (not internationally)—in other words, when your call originates in the same country you are calling.
