6DIHW\,QVWUXFWLRQV Use the following safety guidelines to help protect your computer from potential dam- age and to help ensure your own personal safety. :KHQ8VLQJ
When traveling with the hard-disk drive removed from the computer, wrap the drive in a nonconducting material, such as cloth or paper. If you have the drive checked by hand, be ready to install the drive in the computer. You can put the hard-disk drive through an X-ray security machine, but never put the drive through a metal detector. When traveling, do not place the computer in overhead storage compartments where it could slide around. Do not drop your computer or subject it to other mechanical shocks. Protect your computer, battery, and hard-disk drive from environmental hazards such as dirt, dust, food, liquids, temperature extremes, and overexposure to sunlight. When you move your computer between environments with very different tem- perature and/or humidity ranges, condensation may form on or within the computer. To avoid damaging the computer, allow sufficient time for the moisture to evaporate before using the computer. &%  03 9,3 90 .425:907 1742 4 902507,9:70 .43/9438 394 , ,7207 03;7432039 47 1742  902507,9:70 .43/9438 394 , .4407 03;7432039 ,4 90 .425:907 94 ,..2,90 94 7442 902507, 9:70 -01470 9:733 43 5407 When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its strain-relief loop, not on the cable itself. As you pull out the connector, keep it 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 with care. Hold a component such as a memory module by its edges, not its pins. When removing a memory module from the system board or disconnecting a peripheral device from the computer, wait 5 seconds after turning off the com- puter before removing the memory module or disconnecting the device to help avoid possible damage to the system board. Clean your computer with a soft cloth dampened with water rather than with liquid or aerosol cleaners. Clean the display with a soft, clean cloth and commercial window cleaner that does not contain wax or abrasives. Apply the cleaner to the cloth; then stroke the cloth across the display in one direction, moving from the top of the display to the bottom. If the display contains grease or some other contaminant, use isopropyl alcohol instead of commercial window cleaner. If your computer gets wet or is damaged, follow the procedures described in Chapter 3, “Troubleshooting Your Computer.” If, after following these proce- dures, you confirm that your computer is not operating properly, contact Dell Computer Corporation. (See Chapter 5, “Getting Help,” for the appropriate tele- phone number.) vi
(UJRQRPLF&RPSXWLQJ+DELWV # 2574507 47 574430/ 0-4,7/ :80 2, 708:9 3 3:7 For comfort and efficiency, observe the following ergonomic guidelines when setting up and using your computer: Position your computer directly in front of you as you work. Adjust the tilt of the computer’s display, its contrast and/or brightness settings, and the lighting around you (such as overhead lights, desk lamps, and the cur- tains or blinds on nearby windows) to minimize reflections and glare on the display. When using an external monitor with your computer, set the monitor at a com- fortable viewing distance (usually 510 to 610 millimeters [20 to 24 inches] from your eyes). Make sure the monitor screen is at eye level or slightly lower when you are sitting in front of the monitor. Use a chair that provides good lower-back support. Keep your forearms horizontal with your wrists in a neutral, comfortable position while using the keyboard, trackball, touch pad, or external mouse. Always use the palmrest with the keyboard, touch pad, or trackball. Leave space to rest your hands when using an external mouse. Let your upper arms hang naturally at your sides. Sit erect with your feet resting on the floor and your thighs level. When sitting, make sure the weight of your legs is on your feet and not on the front of your chair seat. Adjust your chair’s height or use a footrest, if necessary, to maintain proper posture. Vary your work activities. Try to organize your work so that you do not have to type for extended periods of time. When you stop typing, try to do things that use both hands. vii

Turn off your computer and any attached peripherals. 2. Disconnect your computer and peripherals from AC power to reduce the poten- tial for personal injury or shock. Also, disconnect any telephone or telecommunication lines from the computer. 3. Remove the main battery from the battery compartment and, if necessary, the secondary battery from the options bay. 4. Ground yourself by touching the unpainted metal surface of the input/output (I/O) panel on the back of the computer. While you work, periodically touch the I/O panel to dissipate any static electricity that might harm internal components. viii
