About Your Computer 23
Bottom View
BATTERY-BAY LATCH RELEASE — Releases the battery. See "Replacing the Battery" on page 33 for instructions.
BATTERY — When a battery is installed, you can use the computer without connecting the computer to an
electrical outlet (see "Using a Battery" on page 29).
MEMORY MODULE COVER — Covers the compartment that contains the second memory module (see "Memory" on
page 115).
DOCKING-DEVICE CONNECTOR — Lets you attach your computer to the Media Base or other docking device. See
the Dell documentation that came with your docking device for more information.
FAN AIR VENTS — The computer uses an internal fan to create airflow through the fan air vents, which prevents the
computer from overheating.
CAUTION: Do not block, push objects into, or allow dust to accumulate in the air vents. Do not store your
computer in a low-airflow environment, such as a closed briefcase, while it is running. Restricting the airflow
can damage the computer or cause a fire.
NOTE: 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.
HARD DRIVE — Stores software and data.
