This section provides information about setting

up your Inspiron™laptop.

Before Setting Up Your

Computer

When positioning your computer, ensure that

you allow easy access to a power source,

adequate ventilation, and a level surface to

place your computer.

Restricting airflow around your Inspiron

laptop may cause it to overheat. To prevent

overheating ensure that you leave at least

10.2 cm (4 inches) at the back of the computer

and a minimum of 5.1 cm (2 inches) on all other

sides. You should never place your computer in

an enclosed space, such as a cabinet or drawer

when it is powered on.

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 powered on.

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.

WARNING: Only trained service personnel

should remove the computer cover. See

the Service Manual at support.dell.com/

manuals for advanced service instructions.

CAUTION: Placing or stacking heavy or

sharp objects on the computer may result

in permanent damage to the computer.

improperly connecting the cable to a power strip or electrical outlet may cause fire or

permanent damage to your computer.
