Always follow installation and service instructions closely.•Internal components may become very warm during normal operation. Before touching any internal components, allow time for them to cool.•Disconnect all cables from the portable computer including the phone cable before opening the memory/modem access door.•Check the voltage rating before you connect the equipment to an electrical outlet to ensure that the required voltage and frequency match the available power source.–If your device has a manual voltage-selection switch, your voltage-selection switch on the back panel must be manually set to operate at the correct operating voltage used in your location.•To prevent electric shock, plug the equipment power cables into properly grounded electrical outlets. If the equipment is provided with a 3-prong power cable, do not use adapter plugs that bypass the grounding feature and do not remove the grounding feature from the plug or adapter.NDH7Mebk1.book Page 9 Tuesday, September 18, 2012 10:10 PM
10 | Safety and Regulatory InformationDo not expose (store or place) your computer or battery pack to 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 65 °C (149 °F). When heated to excessive temperatures, battery cells could vent or explode, posing risk of fire.ENERGY STAR Compliance The Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) ENERGY STAR program is a joint effort between the EPA and manufacturers to reduce air pollution by promoting energy-efficient products. You can help reduce electricity usage and its side effects by leaving the power-management features enabled and by turning off your product when it is not in use for extended periods of time.ENERGY STAR LabelAny Dell product bearing the ENERGY STAR emblem electronically or physically on the product is certified to comply with the EPA ENERGY STAR requirements as configured when shipped by Dell.ENERGY STAR power-management features save energy by allowing computers to enter a very low power (sleep) mode when not in use for a specified period of time. These power-management features are activated on all ENERGY STAR qualified computers.The power-management features are preset to allow the computer and monitor to power down (sleep) after the following periods of inactivity:The computer and monitor can be woken from the sleep state through user interaction with the keyboard or mouse.Wake on LAN (WOL)Computers configured with WOL can also be woken from the sleep state by a network signal. Wake-up from sleep state is unaffected by the BIOS setting and must be enabled or disabled in the operating system. WOL works only when the computer is connected to an AC power supply and may differ based on chassis or platform.The speed of any active 1 Gb/s Ethernet network link is reduced when transitioning to sleep or off state.Wake ManagementComputers with Ethernet capability that are shipped through enterprise channels (sales channels typically used by large and medium-sized business, government, educational, or other organizations to purchase computers for use in managed client or server environments) are capable of both remote (via network) and scheduled (via real-time clock) wake events from sleep state.For additional power-management specific information, see www.energystar.gov/powermanagement.For additional information on the ENERGY STAR program, see www.energystar.gov.Recycling InformationDell recommends that customers dispose of their used computer hardware, monitors, printers, and other peripherals in an environmentally-sound manner. Potential methods include reuse of parts or whole products and recycling of products, components, and/or materials.For specific information on Dell’s worldwide recycling programs, see www.dell.com/recyclingworldwide.Perchlorate MaterialThis product’s coin-cell battery may contain perchlorate and may require special handling when recycled or disposed of.
