General EMC Guidelines

Shielded signal cables: Using shielded cables ensures that you maintain the
appropriate EMC classification for the intended environment. For parallel printers,
a cable is available from Dell Computer Corporation. If you prefer, you can order a
cable from Dell Computer Corporation on the World Wide Web at http://
www.dell.com
.

Protecting against Electrostatic Discharge: Static electricity can harm electronic
components inside your computer. To prevent static damage, discharge static
electricity from your body before you touch any of your computer’s electronic
components, such as a memory module. You can do so by touching an unpainted
metal surface on the computer’s I/O panel.

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 com-
puter is designed to comply with applicable regulations regarding EMI. Changes
or modifications not expressly approved by Dell could void your authority to oper-
ate the equipment. Additional regulatory information regarding your computer
can be found in your online User’s Guide.
