Setting Up Your Studio Laptop

This section provides information about setting

up your Studio 1536/1537 laptop and connecting

peripherals.

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 Studio

laptop may cause it to overheat. To prevent

overheating ensure that you leave at least

10.2 cm (4 in) at the back of the computer and

a minimum of 5.1 cm (2 in) on all other sides.

You should never put your computer in an

enclosed space, such as a cabinet or drawer

when it is powered on.

CAUTION: 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.

NOTICE: Placing or stacking heavy or sharp

objects on the computer may result in

permanent damage to the computer.

Setting Up Your Studio Laptop

Connect the AC Adapter

Connect the AC adapter to the computer and

then plug it into an electrical outlet or surge

protector.

CAUTION: 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 a power strip or electrical outlet may

cause fire or equipment damage.

Setting Up Your Studio Laptop

Check the Wireless Switch

If you plan to use wireless connections, make

sure the wireless switch is in the “On” position.

Using The Wireless Switch

To turn on the wireless switch, slide it from the

rear to the front of the computer until it clicks

into place.

- Off - On

Setting Up Your Studio Laptop

Connect the Network Cable

(optional)

If you plan to use a wired network connection,

plug in the network cable.
