ENERGY STAR® Compliance
Certain configurations of Dell computer systems comply with the requirements set forth by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for energy-
efficient computers. If the front panel of your computer bears the ENERGY STAR® Emblem (see
with these requirements and all ENERGY STAR power management features of the computer are enabled. To disable or change the operation of
these features, you must change the setting for the Power Management option in the System Setup program. For instructions, see
System Setup
Program."
NOTES: As an ENERGY STAR® Partner, Dell Computer Corporation has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR
guidelines for energy efficiency.
Any Dell computer bearing the ENERGY STAR® Emblem is certified to comply with EPA Energy Star requirements as configured
when shipped by Dell. Any changes you make to this configuration (such as installing additional expansion cards or drives) may
increase the system's power consumption beyond the limits set by the EPA's ENERGY STAR® Computers program.
Figure 4. ENERGY STAR® Emblem
The EPA's ENERGY STAR® Computers program is a joint effort between the EPA and computer manufacturers to reduce air pollution by
promoting energy-efficient computer products. The EPA estimates that use of ENERGY STAR® computer products can save computer users up
to two billion dollars annually in electricity costs. In turn, this reduction in electricity usage can reduce emissions of carbon dioxide, the gas primarily
responsible for the greenhouse effect, and sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which are the two primary causes of acid rain.
Computer users can also help to reduce electricity usage and its side effects by turning off their computer systems when they are not in use for
extended periods of time — particularly at night and on weekends.
