Air Travel (Safety Instructions, continued)

• Certain Federal Aviation Administration regulations and/or

airline-specific restrictions may apply to the operation of your

Dell™ computer while you are onboard 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 computer 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

computer, 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 specific instructions as to when the use

of a PED is allowed.

EMC Instructions

• Use shielded signal cables to ensure that you maintain the appropriate

EMC classification for the intended environment. For parallel printers,

a cable is available from Dell. If you prefer, you can order a cable from

Dell at its world-wide website at http://www.dell.com.

• Static electricity can harm electronic components inside your

computer. To prevent static damage, discharge static electricity from

your body before you touch any of your computer's electronic

components, such as a memory module. You can do so by touching an

unpainted metal surface on the computer's input/output panel.
