This section provides information about

setting up your Dell XPS 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 laptop may

cause it to overheat. To prevent overheating

ensure that you leave a minimum of 5.1 cm

(2inches) on the right and left sides. You

should never place your computer in an

enclosed space, such as a cabinet or drawer

while it is powered on.

WARNING: Do not block, push objects

into, or allow dust to accumulate in

the air vents. Do not place your Dell

computer in a low-airflow environment,

such as a closed briefcase, or on fabric

surfaces, such as carpets or rugs, while

it is powered on. Restricting the airflow

can damage the computer, deteriorate

the computer performance, 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.

CAUTION: Placing or stacking heavy

or sharp objects on the computer may

result in permanent damage to the

computer.

Setting Up Your XPS Laptop

Connect the AC Adapter

Connect the AC adapter to the computer and then plug it into an electrical outlet or surge

protector.

WARNING: 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

permanent damage to your computer.
