Safety guidelines

Improper connection, or mounting of the product could result in component failure or undesired interference. Follow the below guidelines

before setting up and operating your device.

• Setup:

• Do not connect to AC power until all other connections—including the power adapter are made. Connecting or disconnecting

components, or equipment on the back panel when the device is receiving AC power can cause power surges, and damage the

device.

• Do not force a connector into its socket. If any undue resistance is encountered, ensure that the connector is correctly oriented to

the receptacle.

• Venting and care:

• Mount the device only as shown or in accordance with the instructions provided with Dell approved mounting accessory kits.

Improper orientation could restrict the airow of heat from the device and damage it.

• Allow sucient space around the device for ventilation, do not place the device in any enclosure that restricts airow around the

device, and do not place any objects on the device or block the vent outlets. For environmental operating specications, see

System specications.

• Power sources:

• When turning o the device, make sure to perform a complete shutdown—through the power button. Do not disconnect the AC

power cord, DC power cord, or shut o power at a circuit breaker—including power strips, to turn o the device.

• Surge protectors for electrical devices are recommended in areas of lightning. However, when lightning is occurring, your equipment

should be properly shut down and unplugged from AC power until the storm has passed.
