Power (Safety Instructions, continued)
Place the AC adapter in a ventilated area, such as a desk
top or on the floor, when you use it to charge the
battery. 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 allow your portable computer to operate with
the base resting directly on exposed skin for extended
periods of time. The surface temperature of the base
will rise during normal operation (particularly when AC
power is present). Allowing sustained contact with
exposed skin can cause discomfort or, eventually, a
burn.
Do not use your computer in a wet environment, for
example, near a bath tub, sink, or swimming pool or in a
wet basement.
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.
Use only the Dell-provided AC adapter approved for
use with the high-capacity battery pack. Use of another
AC adapter may cause a fire or explosion.
Before you connect the high-capacity battery pack to an
electrical outlet, check the AC adapter voltage rating to
ensure that the required voltage and frequency match
the available power source.
