3. Blow carefully into the ball cage to dislodge dust and lint.
4. If the rollers inside the ball cage are dirty, clean the rollers with a cotton swab moistened lightly with isopropyl
alcohol.
5. Recenter the rollers in their channels if they are misaligned. Ensure that fluff from the swab is not left on the
rollers.
6. Replace the ball and retainer ring, and turn the retainer ring clockwise until it clicks into place.
Floppy Drive
Clean your floppy drive using a commercially available cleaning kit. These kits contain pretreated floppy disks to
remove contaminants that accumulate during normal operation.
CDs and DVDs
If you notice problems, such as skipping, with the playback quality of your discs, try cleaning the discs.
1. Hold the disc by its outer edge. You can also touch the inside edge of the center hole.
2. With a soft, lint-free cloth, gently wipe the bottom of the disc (the unlabeled side) in a straight line from the
center to the outer edge of the disc.
For stubborn dirt, try using water or a diluted solution of water and mild soap. You can also purchase commercial
products that clean discs and provide some protection from dust, fingerprints, and scratches. Cleaning products
for CDs are safe to use on DVDs.
FCC Notices (U.S. Only)
Most Dell computer systems are classified by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) as Class B digital devices.
To determine which classification applies to your computer system, examine all FCC registration labels located on the
bottom, side, or back panel of your computer, on card-mounting brackets, and on the cards themselves. If any one of
the labels carries a Class A rating, your entire system is considered to be a Class A digital device. If all labels carry an
FCC Class B rating as distinguished by either an FCC ID number or the FCC logo, ( ), your system is considered to
be a Class B digital device.
Once you have determined your system's FCC classification, read the appropriate FCC notice. Note that FCC regulations
provide that changes or modifications not expressly approved by Dell could void your authority to operate this
equipment.
