Safety and EMC Instructions:

Dell™ Latitude™ X200 Media Base

The following information defines the meaning of additional symbols used

only in the Safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Instructions.

Caution: Safety Instructions

General

Risk of explosion Aircraft

Risk of fire Use of this feature may be prohibited

on aircraft

Risk of electric shock

• Do not attempt to service the media base yourself

unless you are an authorized service technician. Always

follow installation instructions closely.

• If you use an extension power cable with your AC

adapter, ensure that the total ampere rating of the

products plugged in to the extension power cable does

not exceed the ampere rating of the extension cable.

• Do not push objects into openings of your media base.

Doing so can cause fire or electric shock by shorting out

interior components.

6 Dell™ Latitude™ X200 Media Base User’s Guide

www.dell.com | support.dell.com

• Place the AC adapter in a ventilated area, such as a desk

top or on the floor, when you use it to run the media

base or 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 media base 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 media base 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. Do not use your media base during

an electrical storm unless all cables have been

disconnected and the computer is operating on battery

power.

• Before you clean your media base, remove power. Clean

your media base with a soft cloth dampened with water.

Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners, which may

contain flammable substances.

Dell™ Latitude™ X200 Media Base User’s Guide 7

Caution: Power (Safety Instructions, continued)

• Use only the Dell-provided AC adapter approved for

use with this media base. Use of another AC adapter

may cause a fire or explosion.

• Before you connect the media base to an electrical

outlet, check the AC adapter voltage rating to ensure

that the required voltage and frequency match the

available power source.

• To remove power from the media base, turn it off, and

disconnect the AC adapter from the electrical outlet.

• To help prevent electric shock, plug the AC adapter and

peripheral power cables into properly grounded power

sources. These power cables may be equipped with

three-prong plugs to provide an earth grounding

connection. Do not use adapter plugs or remove the

grounding prong from the power cable plug. If you use a

power extension cable, use the appropriate type, two-

prong or three-prong, to mate with the AC adapter

power cable.

• Be sure that nothing rests on your AC adapter’s power

cable and that the cable is not located where it can be

tripped over or stepped on.

• If you are using a multiple-outlet power strip, use

caution when plugging the AC adapter’s power cable

into the power strip. Some power strips may allow you

to insert the plug incorrectly. Incorrect insertion of the

power plug could result in permanent damage to your

media base, as well as risk of electric shock and/or fire.

Ensure that the ground prong of the power plug is

inserted into the mating ground contact of the power

strip.

8 Dell™ Latitude™ X200 Media Base User’s Guide

www.dell.com | support.dell.com

Caution: Air Travel (Safety Instructions, continued)

EMC Instructions

• Use shielded signal cables to ensure that you maintain the appropriate

EMC classification for the intended environment. For parallel printers,

a cable is available from Dell. If you prefer, you can order a cable from

Dell at its world-wide website at www.dell.com.

• Static electricity can harm electronic components inside your media

base. To prevent static damage, discharge static electricity from your

body before you touch any of your media base’s electronic

components, such as a memory module. You can do so by touching an

unpainted metal surface on the media base's input/output panel.

• Certain Federal Aviation Administration regulations and/or

airline-specific restrictions may apply to the operation of your

Dell™ computer while you are on board an aircraft. For

example, such regulations/restrictions may prohibit the use of

any personal electronic device (PED) that has the capacity for

intentional transmission of radio frequency or other

electromagnetic signals while on an aircraft.

– In order to best comply with all such restrictions, if your

Dell portable computer is equipped with Dell

TrueMobile™ or some other wireless communication

device, please disable this device before you board the

aircraft and follow all instructions provided by airline

personnel with regard to such device.

– Additionally, the use of any PED, such as a portable

computer, may be prohibited in aircraft during certain

critical phases of flight, for example, takeoff and landing.

Some airlines may further define the critical flight phase as

any time the aircraft is below 3050 m (10,000 ft). Please

follow the airline’s specific instructions as to when the use

of a PED is allowed.

Dell™ Latitude™ X200 Media Base User’s Guide 9

When Using Your Media Base

Observe the following safe-handling guidelines to prevent damage to your

media base:

• When setting up the media base for work, place it on a level surface.

• When traveling, do not check the media base as baggage. You can put

your media base through an X-ray security machine, but never put your

media base through a metal detector.

• When traveling, do not place the media base in overhead storage

compartments where it could slide around. Do not drop your media

base or subject it to other mechanical shocks.

• Protect your media base from environmental hazards such as dirt,

dust, food, liquids, temperature extremes, and overexposure to

sunlight.

• When you move your media base between environments with very

different temperature and/or humidity ranges, condensation may form

on or within the media base. To avoid damaging the media base, allow

sufficient time for the moisture to evaporate before using the media

base.

NOTICE: When taking the media base from low-temperature conditions into

a warmer environment or from high-temperature conditions into a cooler

environment, allow the media base to acclimate to room temperature before

turning on power.

• When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its strain-

relief loop, not on the cable itself. As you pull out the connector, keep

it evenly aligned to avoid bending any connector pins. Also, before you

connect a cable make sure both connectors are correctly oriented and

aligned.

• If your media base gets wet or is damaged, follow the procedures

described in “Solving Problems” in your computer User’s Guide. If,

after following these procedures, you confirm that your media base is

not operating properly, contact Dell (see “Getting Help” in your

computer User’s Guide for the appropriate contact information).
