extension cable.
• Do not push objects into openings of your device. Doing so can
cause fire or electric shock by shorting out interior components.
• Keep your device away from radiators and heat sources. Avoid
placing loose papers underneath your device; do not place your
device in a closed-in wall unit or on a bed, sofa, or rug.
• Place the AC adapter in a ventilated area, such as a desk top or
on the floor, when you use it to run the device 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

6System Information Guide
• The AC adapter may become hot during normal operation of
your device. Use care when handling the adapter during or
immediately after operation.
• Do not use your device in a wet environment, for example, near a
bath tub, sink, or swimming pool or in a wet basement.
• If your device includes an integrated or optional modem,
disconnect the modem cable if an electrical storm is approaching
to avoid the remote risk of electric shock from lightning via the
telephone line.
• To help avoid the potential hazard of electric shock, do not
connect or disconnect any cables or perform maintenance or
reconfiguration of this product during an electrical storm. Do not
use your device during an electrical storm unless all cables have
been disconnected and the device is operating on battery power.
• If your device includes a modem, the cable used with the modem
should be manufactured with a minimum wire size of
26 American wire gauge (AWG) and an FCC-compliant RJ-11
modular plug.
• Cards may become very warm during normal operation. Use care
when removing cards after their continuous operation.
• Before you clean your device, disconnect the device from the
electrical outlet. Clean your device with a soft cloth dampened
with water. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners, which may
contain flammable substances.
CAUTION: Safety Instructions (continued)

System Information Guide 7
Power
• Use only the Dell-provided AC adapter approved for use with
this device. Use of another AC adapter may cause a fire or
explosion.
• 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 device from all power sources, turn the device off,
remove the battery pack, and disconnect the AC adapter from
the electrical outlet.
• To help prevent electric shock, plug the AC adapter and device
power cables into properly grounded power sources. These power
cables may be equipped with 3-prong plugs to provide an earth
grounding connection. 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, 2-prong or 3-prong, to
mate with the AC adapter power cable.
• Be sure that nothing rests on your AC adapter’s power cable and
that the cable is not located where it can be tripped over or
stepped on. If you are using a multiple-outlet power strip, use
caution when plugging the AC adapter’s power cable in to 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.
CAUTION: Safety Instructions (continued)

8System Information Guide
Battery
• Use only Dell™ battery modules that are approved for use with
this device. Use of other types may increase the risk of fire or
explosion.
• Do not carry a battery pack in your pocket, purse, or other
container where metal objects (such as car keys or paper clips)
could short-circuit the battery terminals. The resulting excessive
current flow can cause extremely high temperatures and may
result in damage to the battery pack or cause fire or burns.
• The battery poses a burn hazard if you handle it improperly. Do
not disassemble it. Handle a damaged or leaking battery pack
with extreme care. If the battery is damaged, electrolyte may leak
from the cells and may cause personal injury.
• Keep the battery away from children.
• Do not store or leave your device or battery pack near a heat
source such as a radiator, fireplace, stove, electric heater, or other
heat-generating appliance or otherwise expose it to temperatures
in excess of 60ºC (140ºF). When heated to excessive
temperatures, battery cells could explode or vent, posing a risk of
fire.
• Do not dispose of your device’s battery in a fire or with normal
household waste. Battery cells may explode. Discard a used
battery according to the manufacturer’s instructions or contact
your local waste disposal agency for disposal instructions.
Dispose of a spent or damaged battery promptly.
CAUTION: Safety Instructions (continued)

System Information Guide 9
Air Travel
• Certain Federal Aviation Administration regulations and/or
airline-specific restrictions may apply to the operation of your
Dell device while you are on board an aircraft. For example, such
regulations/restrictions may prohibit the use of any personal
electronic device (PED) that has the capacity for intentional
transmission of radio frequency or other electromagnetic signals
while on an aircraft.
– In order to best comply with all such restrictions, if your Dell
portable device is equipped with Dell TrueMobile™ or some
other wireless communication device, please disable this
device before you board the aircraft and follow all
instructions provided by airline personnel with regard to
such device.
– Additionally, the use of any PED, such as a portable device,
may be prohibited in aircraft during certain critical phases of
flight, for example, takeoff and landing. Some airlines may
further define the critical flight phase as any time the aircraft
is below 3050 m (10,000 ft). Please follow the airline’s
