This section provides information about setting 
up your Inspiron laptop.
Before Setting Up Your 
Computer 
When positioning your computer, ensure that 
you allow easy access to a power source, 
adequate ventilation, and a level surface to 
place your computer.
Restricting airflow around your Inspiron 
laptop may cause it to overheat. To prevent 
overheating ensure that you leave at least 
10.2 cm (4 inches) at the back of the computer 
and a minimum of 5.1 cm (2 inches) on all other 
sides. You should never place your computer in 
an enclosed space, such as a cabinet or drawer 
when it is powered on. 
WARNING: Do not block, push objects 
into, or allow dust to accumulate in the air 
vents. Do not place your Dell™ computer 
in a low-airflow environment, such as a 
closed briefcase, while it is powered on. 
Restricting the airflow can damage the 
computer or cause a fire. 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.
CAUTION: Placing or stacking heavy or 
sharp objects on the computer may result 
in permanent damage to the computer.
