Dell Inspiron 3700 Reference And Troubleshooting Manual page 107

When you need to contact Dell, use the telephone numbers and codes provided
in Tables 5-1 and 5-2. Table 5-1 provides the various codes required to make
long-distance and international calls. Table 5-2 provides local telephone numbers, area
codes, and toll-free numbers, if applicable, for each department or service available in
various countries around the world. If you are making a direct-dialed call to a location
outside of your local telephone service area, determine which codes to use (if any) in
Table 5-1 in addition to the local numbers provided in Table 5-2. For example, to place
an international call from Paris, France to Bracknell, England, dial the international
access code for France followed by the country code for the U.K., the city code for
Bracknell, and then the local number as shown in the following illustration.

To place a long-distance call within your own country, use area codes instead of
international access codes, country codes, and city codes. For example, to call Paris,
France from Montpellier, France, dial the area code plus the local number as shown in
the following illustration.

The codes required depend on where you are calling from as well as the destination
of your call; in addition, each country has a different dialing protocol. If you need
assistance in determining which codes to use, contact a local or an international
operator.
NOTE: Toll-free numbers are for use only within the country for which they are listed.
Area codes are most often used to call long distance within your own country (not
internationally)—in other words, when your call originates in the same country you are
calling.
