Regulatory Information

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is any signal or emission, radiated in free space or
conducted along power or signal leads, that endangers the functioning of a radio navigation
or other safety service or seriously degrades, obstructs, or repeatedly interrupts a licensed
radio communications service.

Your Dell computer system is designed to comply with applicable regulations regarding
EMI. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Dell could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.

Dell computer systems are designed, tested, and classified for their intended
electromagnetic environment. These electromagnetic environment classifications fall into
two groups:

NOTE: Inspect the regulatory label affixed to the back or bottom of your Dell system to

determine the environments in which your system may be operated.

Class A designates a device which may be operated in business or industrial
environments only.
