CAUTION: Safety Instructions  
Use the following safety guidelines to help ensure your own personal safety and to help  
protect your device and working environment from potential damage.  
SAFETY: General  
Do not attempt to service the device yourself unless you are a trained 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 air vents or openings of your device. Doing so can cause fire  
or electric shock by shorting out interior components.  
Keep your device away from radiators and heat sources. Also, do not block cooling  
vents. Avoid placing loose papers underneath your device; do not place your device in  
a closed-in wall unit or on a bed, sofa, or rug.  
Place the AC adapter in a ventilated area, such as a desk top or on the floor, when you  
use it to run the device 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.  
The AC adapter may become hot during normal operation of your device. Use care  
when handling the adapter during or immediately after operation.  
Do not use your device in a wet environment, for example, near a bath tub, sink, or  
swimming pool or in a wet basement.  
If your device includes an integrated or optional (PC Card) modem, disconnect the  
modem cable if an electrical storm is approaching to avoid the remote risk of electric  
shock from lightning via the telephone line.  
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 device during an electrical storm unless all cables have been  
disconnected and the device is operating on battery power.  
If your device includes a modem, the cable used with the modem should be  
manufactured with a minimum wire size of 26 American wire gauge (AWG) and an

Caution: Safety Instructions  
11  
       
SAFETY: Power  
Use only the Dell-provided AC adapter approved for use with this device. Use of  
another AC adapter may cause a fire or explosion.  
Before you connect the device 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 the device from all power sources, turn the device off, disconnect the  
AC adapter from the electrical outlet, and remove the battery installed in the battery bay.  
To help prevent electric shock, plug the AC adapter and device power cables into  
properly grounded power sources. These power cables may be equipped with 3-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, 2-prong or 3-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 device, 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.  
SAFETY: Battery  
Use only Dell™ battery modules that are approved for use with this device. Use of  
other types may increase the risk of fire or explosion.  
Do not carry a battery pack in your pocket, purse, or other container where metal  
objects (such as car keys or paper clips) could short-circuit the battery terminals.  
The resulting excessive current flow can cause extremely high temperatures and may  
result in damage to the battery pack or cause fire or burns.  
The battery poses a burn hazard if you handle it improperly. Do not disassemble it.  
Handle a damaged or leaking battery pack with extreme care. If the battery is  
damaged, electrolyte may leak from the cells and may cause personal injury.  
Keep the battery away from children.  
Do not store or leave your device or battery pack near a heat source such as a radiator,  
fireplace, stove, electric heater, or other heat-generating appliance or otherwise expose  
it to temperatures in excess of 60ºC (140ºF). When heated to excessive temperatures,  
battery cells could explode or vent, posing a risk of fire.  
Do not dispose of your device’s battery in a fire or with normal household waste.  
Battery cells may explode. Discard a used battery according to the manufacturer’s  
instructions or contact your local waste disposal agency for disposal instructions.  
Dispose of a spent or damaged battery promptly.

Tips for getting good recognition:  
Write neatly.  
Write on the lines and draw descenders below the line. Write the cross  
of the "t" and apostrophes below the top line so that they are not  
confused with the word above. Write periods and commas above  
the line.  
For better recognition, try changing the zoom level to 300 percent  
using the Tools menu.  
Write the letters of a word closely and leave big gaps between words so  
that the device can easily determine where words begin and end.  
Hyphenated words, foreign words that use special characters such as  
accents, and some punctuation cannot be converted.  
You cannot add written text to a word to change it after the word has  
been recognized. You must delete the written word and write the  
new word.

Using the Microsoft ActiveSync  
Program  
About ActiveSync  
You can synchronize the information on your computer with the information  
on your device with ActiveSync. Synchronization compares the data on your  
device with the data on your computer and updates both with the most recent  
information. For example:  
Keep Microsoft Pocket Outlook data up-to-date by synchronizing your  
device with Microsoft Outlook data on your computer.  
Synchronize Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your device  
and your computer. Your files are automatically converted to the correct format.  
NOTE: By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types of  
information. You can change ActiveSync options to synchronize specific types  
of information.  
With ActiveSync, you can also:  
Back up and restore your device data.  
Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your device and your computer.  
Select a synchronization mode to control when synchronization occurs.  
For example, you can synchronize continuously or only when you select  
the synchronize command.  
Select which information types are synchronized and control how much  
data is synchronized. For example, you can choose how many weeks of  
past appointments you want synchronized.  
®
To synchronize your data, you need both the Microsoft Windows and  
Pocket PC versions of ActiveSync. You must install the Windows version of  
ActiveSync on your computer using the Dell™ Companion CD. The Pocket PC  
version is already installed on your device.  
NOTE: Before connecting your device to a computer for the first time, ensure that  
you install ActiveSync on the computer using the Dell™ Companion CD.

automatically begins when you complete the wizard.  
NOTE: The device must be powered on for the synchronization process  
to occur.  
During your first synchronization, information that was stored in Outlook  
on your computer is copied to Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks on your device.  
After you set up ActiveSync and complete the first synchronization process,  
you can initiate synchronization from your device. To switch to ActiveSync  
on your device, tap the Start button and tap ActiveSync. If you have a

enabling Messaging synchronization, see ActiveSync Help on your computer.  
NOTE: You can also synchronize e-mail messages with your computer from a

When you connect to the e-mail server:

Messages in the device Outbox folder are sent.  
Messages that have been deleted on the e-mail server are removed from  
the device Inbox folder.  
Messages that you receive directly from an e-mail server are linked to your  
e-mail server rather than to your computer. When you delete a message on  
your device, it is also deleted from the e-mail server the next time you  
connect depending on the settings you selected in ActiveSync.  
When you are working online, you read and respond to messages while  
connected to the e-mail server. Messages are sent as soon as you tap Send

Managing E-Mail Messages and Folders  
By default, messages are displayed in one of five folders for each service you  
have created: Inbox, Deleted Items, Drafts, Outbox, or Sent Items. The  
Deleted Items folder contains messages that have been deleted on the  
device. The behavior of the Deleted Items and Sent Items folders depends  
on the options you have selected.To change the options, tap Tools in the  
message list and tap Options. On the Message tab, select your options.  
To create a new folder, tap Tools, and tap Manage Folders. To move a  
message to another folder, tap and hold the message in the message list and  
tap Move to on the pop-up menu.  
Folder Behavior With a Direct Connection to an E-Mail Server  
The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you use  
ActiveSync, POP3, or IMAP4.  
If you use ActiveSync, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook  
are automatically synchronized with your device. You can select to  
synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync.  
The folders you create and the messages you move are then mirrored  
on the server. For example, if you move messages from the Inbox folder  
to a folder named Family, and you have designated Family for  
synchronization, the server creates a copy of the Family folder and  
copies the messages into that folder. You can then read the messages  
while away from your computer.  
68  
Scheduling and Communicating  
   
If you use POP3 and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created,  
the link is broken between the messages on the device and their copies  
on the e-mail server. The next time you connect, the e-mail server  
detects that the messages are missing from the device Inbox and  
deletes them from the server. This prevents you from having duplicate  
copies of a message. However, you no longer have access to messages  
that you move to folders created from anywhere except the device.  
If you use IMAP4, the folders you create and the e-mail messages you  
move are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages are available to  
you any time you connect to your e-mail server, whether it is from your  
device or computer. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever  
you connect to the server, create new folders, or rename/delete folders  
when connected.  
Notifications  
You can set your device to remind you when you have something to do.  
For example, if you have set up an appointment in Calendar, a task with a

U.S. Terms and Conditions of Sale  
These terms and conditions ("Agreement") apply to your purchase of computer systems  
and/or related products and/or services and support sold in the United States ("Product") by  
the Dell entity named on the invoice or acknowledgement ("Dell") provided to you. By  
accepting delivery of the Product, you accept and are bound to the terms and conditions of  
this Agreement. If you do not wish to be bound by this Agreement, you must notify Dell  
immediately and return your purchase pursuant to Dell's Total Satisfaction Return Policy.  
(See: support.dell.com/ContactUs/ByPhone.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen for our contact  
information.) If returned, Product(s) must remain in the boxes in which they were shipped.  
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL APPLY UNLESS (I) YOU HAVE A SEPARATE PURCHASE  
AGREEMENT WITH DELL, IN WHICH CASE THE SEPARATE AGREEMENT SHALL  
GOVERN; OR (II) OTHER DELL TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLY TO  
THE TRANSACTION.  
1
Other Documents.  
This Agreement may NOT be altered, supplemented, or amended by the use of any other  
document(s) unless otherwise agreed to in a written agreement signed by both you and

Payment terms are within Dell's sole discretion, and, unless otherwise agreed to by Dell,  
payment must be made at the time of purchase. Payment for Product may be made by  
credit card, wire transfer, or some other prearranged payment method. Dell may invoice  
parts of an order separately. Your order is subject to cancellation by Dell, at Dell's sole  
discretion. Unless you and Dell have agreed to a different discount, Dell's standard  
pricing policy for Dell-branded systems, which include both hardware and services in one  
discounted price, allocates the discount off list price applicable to the service portion of  
the system to be equal to the overall calculated percentage discount off list price on the  
entire system. Dell is not responsible for pricing, typographical, or other errors, in any  
offer by Dell and reserves the right to cancel any orders resulting from such errors.  
3
Shipping Charges; Taxes; Title; Risk of Loss.  
Shipping and handling are additional unless otherwise expressly indicated at the time of  
sale. Loss or damage that occurs during shipping by a carrier selected by Dell is Dell's  
responsibility. Loss or damage that occurs during shipping by a carrier selected by you is  
your responsibility. You must notify Dell within 30 days of the date of your invoice or  
acknowledgement if you believe any part of your purchase is missing wrong or damaged.  
Unless you provide Dell with a valid and correct tax exemption certificate applicable to  
your purchase of Product and the Product ship-to location, you are responsible for sales  
and other taxes associated with the order. Shipping dates are estimates only. Title to  
software will remain with the applicable licensor(s).

ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE, OR CONTROVERSY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT,  
OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER PREEXISTING, PRESENT OR FUTURE, AND  
INCLUDING STATUTORY, COMMON LAW, INTENTIONAL TORT AND  
EQUITABLE CLAIMS) BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND DELL, its agents, employees,  
principals, successors, assigns, affiliates (collectively for purposes of this paragraph,  
"Dell") arising from or relating to this Agreement, its interpretation, or the breach,  
termination or validity thereof, the relationships which result from this Agreement  
(including, to the full extent permitted by applicable law, relationships with third parties  
who are not signatories to this Agreement), Dell's advertising, or any related purchase  
SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION  
ADMINISTERED BY THE NATIONAL ARBITRATION FORUM (NAF) under its  
Code of Procedure then in effect (available via the Internet at www.arb-forum.com  
,
or via telephone at 1-800-474-2371). The arbitration will be limited solely to the dispute  
or controversy between customer and Dell. NEITHER CUSTOMER NOR DELL  
SHALL BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST  
OTHER CUSTOMERS, OR ARBITRATE ANY CLAIM AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR  
CLASS ACTION OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. This  
transaction involves interstate commerce, and this provision shall be governed by the  
Federal Arbitration Act 9 U.S.C. sec. 1-16 (FAA). Any award of the arbitrator(s) shall be  
final and binding on each of the parties, and may be entered as a judgment in any court  
of competent jurisdiction. Dell will be responsible for paying any arbitration filing fees  
and fees required to obtain a hearing to the extent such fees exceed the amount of the  
filing fee for initiating a claim in the court of general jurisdiction in the state in which  
you reside. Each party shall pay for its own costs and attorneys' fees, if any. However, if  
any party prevails on a statutory claim that affords the prevailing party attorneys' fees, or  
if there is a written agreement providing for fees, the Arbitrator may award reasonable  
fees to the prevailing party, under the standards for fee shifting provided by law.  
Information may be obtained and claims may be filed with the NAF at P.O. Box 50191,

Dell™ Software License Agreement  
This is a legal agreement between you, the user, and Dell Products, L.P ("Dell"). This  
agreement covers all software that is distributed with the Dell product, for which there is no  
separate license agreement between you and the manufacturer or owner of the software  
(collectively the "Software"). This agreement is not for the sale of Software or any other  
intellectual property. All title and intellectual property rights in and to Software is owned by  
the manufacturer or owner of the Software. All rights not expressly granted under this  
agreement are reserved by the manufacturer or owner of the Software. By opening or  
breaking the seal on the Software packet(s), installing or downloading the Software, or using  
Appendix  
107  
 
the Software that has been preloaded or is embedded in your product, you agree to be bound  
by the terms of this agreement. If you do not agree to these terms, promptly return all  
Software items (disks, written materials, and packaging) and delete any preloaded or  
embedded Software.  
You may use one copy of the Software on only one product at a time. If you have multiple  
licenses for the Software, you may use as many copies at any time as you have licenses. "Use"  
means loading the Software in temporary memory or permanent storage on the product.  
Installation on a network server solely for distribution to other products is not "use" if (but  
only if) you have a separate license for each product to which the Software is distributed. You  
must ensure that the number of persons using the Software installed on a network server  
does not exceed the number of licenses that you have. If the number of users of Software  
installed on a network server will exceed the number of licenses, you must purchase  
additional licenses until the number of licenses equals the number of users before allowing  
additional users to use the Software. If you are a commercial customer of Dell or a Dell  
affiliate, you hereby grant Dell, or an agent selected by Dell, the right to perform an audit of  
your use of the Software during normal business hours, you agree to cooperate with Dell in  
such audit, and you agree to provide Dell with all records reasonably related to your use of  
the Software. The audit will be limited to verification of your compliance with the terms of  
this agreement.  
The Software is protected by United States copyright laws and international treaties. You  
may make one copy of the Software solely for backup or archival purposes or transfer it to a  
single hard disk provided you keep the original solely for backup or archival purposes. You  
may not rent or lease the Software or copy the written materials accompanying the Software,  
but you may transfer the Software and all accompanying materials on a permanent basis as  
part of a sale or transfer of the Dell product if you retain no copies and the recipient agrees to  
the terms hereof. Any transfer must include the most recent update and all prior versions.  
You may not reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Software. If the package  
accompanying your product contains compact discs, 3.5", and/or 5.25" disks, you may use  
only the disks appropriate for your product. You may not use the disks on another product or  
network, or loan, rent, lease, or transfer them to another user except as permitted by  
this agreement.  
Limited Warranty  
Dell warrants that the Software disks will be free from defects in materials and workmanship  
under normal use for ninety (90) days from the date you receive them. This warranty is  
limited to you and is not transferable. Any implied warranties are limited to ninety (90) days  
from the date you receive the Software. Some jurisdictions do not allow limits on the  
duration of an implied warranty, so this limitation may not apply to you. The entire liability  
of Dell and its suppliers, and your exclusive remedy, shall be (a) return of the price paid for  
the Software or (b) replacement of any disk not meeting this warranty that is sent with a  
return authorization number to Dell, at your cost and risk. This limited warranty is void if  
any disk damage has resulted from accident, abuse, misapplication, or service or  
modification by someone other than Dell. Any replacement disk is warranted for the  
remaining original warranty period or thirty (30) days, whichever is longer.  
108  
Appendix  
Dell does NOT warrant that the functions of the Software will meet your requirements or  
that operation of the Software will be uninterrupted or error free. You assume responsibility  
for selecting the Software to achieve your intended results and for the use and results  
obtained from the Software.  
DELL, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS SUPPLIERS, DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER  
WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,  
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A  
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, FOR THE SOFTWARE AND ALL ACCOMPANYING  
WRITTEN MATERIALS. This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights; you may have  
others, which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.  
IN NO EVENT SHALL DELL OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES  
WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF  
BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS  
INFORMATION, OR OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS) ARISING OUT OF USE OR  
INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF  
SUCH DAMAGES. Because some jurisdictions do not allow an exclusion or limitation of  
liability for consequential or incidental damages, the above limitation may not apply to you.  
U.S. Government Restricted Rights  
The software and documentation are "commercial items" as that term is defined at  
48 C.F.R. 2.101, consisting of "commercial computer software" and "commercial computer  
software documentation" as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212. Consistent with  
48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, all U.S. Government end  
users acquire the software and documentation with only those rights set forth herein.  
Contractor/manufacturer is Dell Products, L.P., One Dell Way, Round Rock, Texas 78682.  
General  
This license is effective until terminated. It will terminate upon the conditions set forth  
above or if you fail to comply with any of its terms. Upon termination, you agree that the  
Software and accompanying materials, and all copies thereof, will be destroyed. This  
agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Texas. Each provision of this agreement is  
severable. If a provision is found to be unenforceable, this finding does not affect the  
enforceability of the remaining provisions, terms, or conditions of this agreement. This  
agreement is binding on successors and assigns. Dell agrees and you agree to waive, to the  
maximum extent permitted by law, any right to a jury trial with respect to the Software or  
this agreement. Because this waiver may not be effective in some jurisdictions, this waiver  
may not apply to you. You acknowledge that you have read this agreement, that you  
understand it, that you agree to be bound by its terms, and that this is the complete and  
exclusive statement of the agreement between you and Dell regarding the Software.

Regulatory Notices  
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. Radio communications services include but are not limited to  
AM/FM commercial broadcast, television, cellular services, radar, air-traffic control, pager,  
and Personal Communication Services (PCS). These licensed services, along with  
unintentional radiators such as digital devices, including computers, contribute to the  
electromagnetic environment.  
Electromagnetic Compatibility is the ability of items of electronic equipment to function  
properly together in the electronic environment. While this computer has been designed and  
determined to be compliant with regulatory agency limits for EMI, there is no guarantee that  
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause  
interference with radio communications services, which can be determined by turning the  
equipment off and on, you are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of  
the following measures:  
Reorient the receiving antenna.  
Relocate the computer with respect to the receiver.  
Move the computer away from the receiver.  
Plug the computer into a different outlet so that the computer and the receiver are on  
different branch circuits.  
If necessary, consult a Dell Technical Support representative or an experienced  
radio/television technician for additional suggestions.  
Dell™ computers are designed, tested, and classified for their intended electromagnetic  
environment. These electromagnetic environment classifications generally refer to the  
following harmonized definitions:  
Class A is typically for business or industrial environments.  
Class B is typically for residential environments.  
Information Technology Equipment (ITE), including devices, expansion cards, printers,  
input/output (I/O) devices, monitors, and so on, that are integrated into or connected to the  
computer should match the electromagnetic environment classification of the computer.  
A Notice About Shielded Signal Cables: Use only shielded cables for connecting devices to  
any Dell device to reduce the possibility of interference with radio communications  
services. Using shielded cables ensures that you maintain the appropriate Electromagnetic  
Compatibility classification for the intended environment. For parallel printers, a cable is

for each regulatory agency. Each section provides country-specific Electromagnetic  
Compatibility/EMI or product safety information.  
FCC Notices (U.S. Only)  
Most Dell computers are classified by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) as  
Class B digital devices. To determine which classification applies to your computer, examine  
all FCC registration labels located on the bottom, side, or back panel of your computer, on  
card-mounting brackets, and on the cards themselves. If any one of the labels carries a  
Class A rating, your entire computer is considered to be a Class A digital device. If all labels  
carry an FCC Class B rating as distinguished by either an FCC ID number or the FCC logo,  
(
), your computer is considered to be a Class B digital device.  
Once you have determined your computer’s FCC classification, read the appropriate  
FCC notice. Note that FCC regulations provide that changes or modifications not expressly  
approved by Dell could void your authority to operate this equipment.  
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following  
two conditions:  
This device may not cause harmful interference.  
This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may  
cause undesired operation.  
Class B  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital  
device pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable  
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment  
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in  
accordance with the manufacturer’s instruction manual, may cause interference with radio  
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a  
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or  
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, you are  
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:  
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the  
receiver is connected.

EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES FOR THE PRODUCT, INCLUDING BUT  
NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF

LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.  
WE DO NOT ACCEPT LIABILITY BEYOND THE REMEDIES PROVIDED FOR IN  
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL  
DAMAGES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY LIABILITY FOR THIRD-  
PARTY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU FOR DAMAGES, FOR PRODUCTS NOT BEING

LIABILITY WILL BE NO MORE THAN THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE  
PRODUCT THAT IS THE SUBJECT OF A CLAIM. THIS IS THE MAXIMUM  
AMOUNT FOR WHICH WE ARE RESPONSIBLE.

reconditioned parts, the reminder of the warranty for the Dell computer on which  
such parts are installed.  
154

What will Dell do?  
During the 90 days of the 90-day limited warranty and the first year of all other limited  
warranties: During the 90 days of the 90-day limited warranty and the first year of all other  
limited warranties, we will repair any Dell-branded hardware products returned to us that  
prove to be defective in materials or workmanship. If we are not able to repair the product,  
we will replace it with a comparable product that is new or refurbished.  
When you contact us, we will issue a Return Material Authorization Number for you to  
include with your return. You must return the products to us in their original or equivalent  
packaging, prepay shipping charges, and insure the shipment or accept the risk if the product  
is lost or damaged in shipment. We will return the repaired or replacement products to you.  
We will pay to ship the repaired or replaced products to you if you use an address in the  
United States (excluding Puerto Rico and U.S. possessions and territories). Otherwise, we  
will ship the product to you freight collect.  
Appendix  
155  
If we determine that the product is not covered under this warranty, we will notify you and  
inform you of service alternatives that are available to you on a fee basis.  
NOTE: Before you ship the product(s) to us, make sure to back up the data on the hard drive(s)  
and any other storage device(s) in the product(s). Remove any confidential, proprietary, or  
personal information and removable media such as floppy disks, CDs, or PC Cards. We are not  
responsible for any of your confidential, proprietary, or personal information; lost or corrupted  
data; or damaged or lost removable media.  
During the remaining years: For the remaining period of the limited warranty, we will replace  
any defective part with new or refurbished parts, if we agree that it needs to be replaced.  
When you contact us, we will require a valid credit card number at the time you request a  
replacement part, but we will not charge you for the replacement part as long as you return  
the original part to us within 30 days after we ship the replacement part to you. If we do not  
receive the original part within 30 days, we will charge to your credit card the then-current  
standard price for that part.  
We will pay to ship the part to you if you use an address in the United States (excluding  
Puerto Rico and U.S. possessions and territories). Otherwise, we will ship the part freight  
collect. We will also include a prepaid shipping container with each replacement part for  
your use in returning the replaced part to us.  
NOTE: Before you replace parts, make sure to back up the data on the hard drive(s) and any  
other storage device(s) in the product(s). We are not responsible for lost or corrupted data.  
What if I purchased a service contract?  
If your service contract is with Dell, service will be provided to you under the terms of the  
service agreement. Please refer to that contract for details on how to obtain service.  
If you purchased through us a service contract with one of our third-party service providers,  
please refer to that contract for details on how to obtain service.  
How will you fix my product?  
We use new and refurbished parts made by various manufacturers in performing warranty  
repairs and in building replacement parts and systems. Refurbished parts and systems are  
parts or systems that have been returned to Dell, some of which were never used by a  
customer. All parts and systems are inspected and tested for quality. Replacement parts and  
systems are covered for the remaining period of the limited warranty for the product you  
bought. Dell owns all parts removed from repaired products.  
156  
Appendix  
May I transfer the limited warranty?  
Limited warranties on systems may be transferred if the current owner transfers ownership of  
the system and records the transfer with us. The limited warranty on Dell-branded memory  
may not be transferred. You may record your transfer by going to Dell's website:

How will you fix my product?  
We use new and refurbished parts made by various manufacturers in performing warranty  
repairs and in building replacement parts and systems. Refurbished parts and systems are  
parts or systems that have been returned to Dell, some of which were never used by a  
customer. All parts and systems are inspected and tested for quality. Replacement parts and  
systems are covered for the remaining period of the limited warranty for the product you  
bought. Dell owns all parts removed from repaired products.  
Appendix

May I transfer the limited warranty?  
Limited warranties on systems may be transferred if the current owner transfers ownership of  
the system and records the transfer with us. The limited warranty on Dell-branded memory  
may not be transferred. You may record your transfer by going to Dell’s website:

from a Dell company, you may return Dell Software and Peripherals products that are in as-new  
condition to Dell up to 30 days from the date on the packing slip or invoice for a refund of  
the product purchase price if already paid. This refund will not include any shipping and  
handling charges shown on your packing slip or invoice; you are responsible for those.

Credit Return Authorization Number. You must ship the Dell Software and Peripherals products  
back to Dell in their original manufacturer's packaging (which must be in as-new condition),
