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.

Setup and Quick Reference Guide 11
1Turn off your computer and any peripherals.
2Ground 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.
3Disconnect 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.

12 Setup and Quick Reference Guide
www.dell.com | support.dell.com
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
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.

Setup and Quick Reference Guide 13
• 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).
• 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.
