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.
