in "Features and Options.")

To turn off the computer, follow the standard shutdown procedure described in your operating system
documentation.

CAUTION: Do not allow your Latitude portable computer to operate for an

extended period of time with the base resting directly on your body. With

extended operation, heat can potentially build up in the base. Allowing sustained

contact with the skin could cause discomfort or, eventually, a burn.

Modular Bay

Your computer comes with a

diskette drive

installed in the modular bay. To use another device in the

modular bay, first

remove

the diskette drive.

NOTICE: When drives are not inside the computer, they are fragile and must be handled

carefully to avoid damage. Do not press down on the drives or place heavy objects on

top of them. Place the drives in a travel case to keep them free of dust and liquids.

Store the drives in a safe place.

NOTICE: If the computer is docked, turn off the computer and undock it before

installing or removing a drive.

You can install the following modules in the modular bay:
