•Keep your system components away from radiators and heat sources. Also, do not block cooling vents.

•Do not spill food or liquids on your system components, and never operate the product in a wet environment. If the computer gets wet, see the appropriate chapter in your troubleshooting guide or contact a Dell-authorized service provider.

•Do not push any objects into the openings of your system components. Doing so can cause fire or electric shock by shorting out interior components.

•

•

Use the product only with Dell products or other Dell-approved equipment.
