Do not cover the AC adapter with papers or other items that will reduce cooling; also, do not use the AC adapter inside a carrying case. • Do not use your computer in a wet environment, for example, near a bath tub, sink, or swimming pool or in a wet basement. • Do not push objects into air vents or openings of your computer. Doing so can cause fire or electric shock by shorting out interior components. • Use only the AC adapter and batteries that are approved for use with this computer as indicated in this document. Use of another type of battery pack or AC adapter may risk fire or explosion. • Before you connect the computer to a power source, ensure that the voltage rating of the AC adapter matches that of the available power source: - 115 volts (V)/60 hertz (Hz) in most of North and South America and some Far Eastern countries such as South Korea and Taiwan - 100 V/50 Hz in eastern Japan and 100 V/60 Hz in western Japan - 230 V/50 Hz in most of Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East • To help prevent electric shock, plug the AC adapter and peripheral power cables into properly grounded power sources. These cables are equipped with threeprong plugs to help ensure proper grounding. Do not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong from a cable. If you must use an extension cable, use a three-wire cable with properly grounded plugs. • If you use an extension cable with your AC adapter, ensure that the total ampere rating of the products plugged into the extension cable does not exceed the ampere rating of the extension cable. • To remove power from the computer, turn it off, remove the battery pack, and disconnect the AC adapter from the electrical outlet. • If your computer includes an integrated or optional (PC Card) modem, disconnect the modem cable during an electrical storm to avoid the remote risk of electric shock from lightning via the telephone line. • To help avoid the potential hazard of electric shock, do not connect or disconnect any cables or perform maintenance or reconfiguration of this product during an electrical storm. • PC Cards may become very warm during normal operation. Use care when removing PC Cards after their continuous operation. • Do not dispose of battery packs in a fire. They may explode. Check with local authorities for disposal instructions. • When setting up the computer for work, place it on a level surface. support.dell.com DELL CONFIDENTIAL - Preliminary 1/25/00 Dell Latitude System Information 1-7
