Safety Instructions

Use the following safety guidelines to protect your computer from potential

damage and ensure your personal safety.

WARNING: Before working inside your computer, read the safety information

that shipped with your computer. For additional safety best practices information,

see the Regulatory Compliance Homepage at dell.com/regulatory_compliance.

CAUTION: To avoid damaging the computer, ensure that the work surface is flat

and clean.

CAUTION: To avoid damaging the components and cards, handle them by their

edges and avoid touching pins and contacts.

WARNING: Disconnect all power sources before opening the computer cover or

panels. After you finish working inside the computer, replace all covers, panels,

and screws before connecting to the power source.

CAUTION: Only a certified service technician is authorized to remove the

computer cover and access any of the components inside the computer. See the

safety instructions for complete information about safety precautions, working

inside your computer, and protecting against electrostatic discharge.

CAUTION: Before touching anything inside your computer, ground yourself by

touching an unpainted metal surface, such as the metal at the back of the

computer. While you work, periodically touch an unpainted metal surface to

dissipate static electricity, which could harm internal components.

CAUTION: When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its pull-tab,

not on the cable itself. Some cables have connectors with locking tabs or

thumb-screws that you must disengage before disconnecting the cable. When

disconnecting cables, keep them evenly aligned to avoid bending any connector

pins. When connecting cables, ensure that the connectors and ports are correctly

oriented and aligned.

CAUTION: To disconnect a network cable, first unplug the cable from your

computer and then unplug the cable from the network device.
