B A T T E R Y - B A Y L A T C H R E L E A S E Releases the battery. See "Replacing the Battery" on page 33 for instructions.

BATTERY When a battery is installed, you can use the computer without connecting the computer to an electrical outlet (see "Using a Battery" on page 29).

MEMORY MODULE COVER Covers the compartment that contains the second memory module (see "Memory" on page 115).

DOCKING - DEVICE CONNECTOR Lets you attach your computer to the Media Base or other docking device. See the Dell documentation that came with your docking device for more information.

FAN AIR VENTS The computer uses an internal fan to create airflow through the fan air vents, which prevents the computer from overheating.

CAUTION: Do not block, push objects into, or allow dust to accumulate in the air vents. Do not store your computer in a low-airflow environment, such as a closed briefcase, while it is running. Restricting the airflow can damage the computer or cause a fire.

NOTE: The computer turns on the fan when the computer gets hot. Fan noise is normal and does not indicate a problem with the fan or the computer.

HARD DRIVE Stores software and data.
