WARNING: Do not block, push objects into, or allow dust to accumulate in the air
vents. Do not store your Dell 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. 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.
Quick Setup
WARNING: Before you begin any of the procedures in this section, read the safety
information that shipped with your computer. For additional best practices
information, see www.dell.com/regulatory_compliance.
WARNING: The AC adapter works with electrical outlets worldwide. However,
power connectors and power strips vary among countries. Using an incompatible
cable or improperly connecting the cable to the power strip or electrical outlet may
cause fire or equipment damage.
CAUTION: When you disconnect the AC adapter cable from the computer, grasp
the connector, not the cable itself, and pull firmly but gently to avoid damaging the
cable. When you wrap the AC adapter cable, ensure that you follow the angle of the
connector on the AC adapter to avoid damaging the cable.
NOTE: Some devices may not be included if you did not order them. The docking-
station device is optional.
1. Connect the AC adapter to the AC adapter connector on the computer
and to the electrical outlet.

FCC Radiation Exposure Statement
WARNING: The radiated output power of the Dell Wireless WLAN Card devices
is far below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, the Dell
Wireless WLAN Card devices should be used in such a manner that the potential
for human contact during normal operation is minimized. To avoid the possibility
of exceeding the FCC radio frequency exposure limits, you should keep a distance
of at least 20 cm between you (or any other person in the vicinity) and the antenna
that is built into the printer. To determine the location of the antenna within your
printer, check the information posted on the general Dell support site at
http://support.dell.com.
This device has also been evaluated for and shown compliant with the FCC RF
exposure limits under portable exposure conditions (antennas are within 20 cm of a
person's body) when installed in certain specific OEM configurations. Details of the
authorized configurations can be found at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid/help.html
by entering the FCC ID number on the device.
Interference Statement
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the manufacturer's instruction manual, may cause
interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and
found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1) This device may not cause harmful interference.
2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
Notice: The FCC regulations provide that changes or modifications not expressly
approved by Dell Inc. could void your authority to operate this equipment.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in
a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur
in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference with radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, you
are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Reorient the receiving antenna.
• Relocate the system with respect to the receiver.
• Move the system away from the receiver.
• Plug the system into a different outlet so that the system and the receiver are
on different branch circuits.
If necessary, consult a representative of Dell Inc. or an experienced radio/television
technician for additional suggestions.
NOTE: This Dell Wireless WLAN Card must be installed and used in strict
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions as described in the user
documentation that comes with the product. Any other installation or use will violate
FCC Part 15 regulations. Modifications not expressly approved by Dell could void
your authority to operate the equipment.
This device must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
The Dell Wireless WLAN Card products are designed to be interoperable with any
wireless LAN product that is based on direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio
technology and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and to comply with
the following standards:
• IEEE 802.11a Standard on 5 GHz Wireless LAN
• IEEE 802.11b-1999 Standard on 2.4 GHz Wireless LAN
• IEEE 802.11g Standard on 2.4 GHz Wireless LAN
• Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) certification, as defined by the WECA (Wireless
Ethernet Compatibility Alliance)
Safety
The Dell Wireless WLAN Card, like other radio devices, emits radio frequency
electromagnetic energy. The level of energy emitted by this device, however, is less than
the electromagnetic energy emitted by other wireless devices such as mobile phones. The
Dell Wireless WLAN Card wireless device operates within the guidelines found in radio
frequency safety and recommendations. These standards and recommendations reflect the
consensus of the scientific community and result from deliberations of panels and
committees of scientists who continually review and interpret the extensive research
literature. In some situations or environments, the use of the Dell Wireless WLAN Card
wireless devices may be restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible
representatives of the applicable organization.
Examples of such situations include the following:
• Using the Dell Wireless WLAN Card equipment on board airplanes, or
• Using the Dell Wireless WLAN Card equipment in any other environment where
the risk of interference with other devices or services is perceived or identified as
being harmful.
If you are uncertain of the policy that applies to the use of wireless devices in a specific
organization or environment (an airport, for example), you are encouraged to ask for
authorization to use the Dell Wireless WLAN Card wireless device before you turn it on.
Explosive Device Proximity Warning:
Do not operate a portable transmitter (such as a wireless network device) near unshielded
blasting caps or in an explosive environment unless the device has been modified to be
qualified for such use.
Use on Aircraft Caution:
Regulations of the FCC and FAA prohibit airborne operation of radio-frequency wireless
devices because their signals could interfere with critical aircraft instruments.
Regulatory Information
