Product End-of-Life Instructions
PRODUCT FAMILY
Inspiron Laptops
PURPOSE
The intent of this document is to provide guidance to recyclers on the presence of materials and
components at the product / family level, as required by the EU WEEE Directive 2012/19/EU. This
document should also help direct recyclers to proper methods for removing parts and general product
disassembly instructions.
PRODUCT DISASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Most parts can be removed easily by hand. In some cases common household tools such as Philips
and/or flat-head screw drivers may be necessary. To remove discrete components such as the
electrolytic capacitors, needle-nose pliers may be helpful. Instructions for removing parts in each
product can be found in the User Documentation originally provided with the product. This
documentation can be found online:
/support/home/en-pr/products/laptop/laptop_inspiron
PRODUCT MATERIAL INFORMATION
The following substances, preparations, or components should be disposed of or recovered
separately from other WEEE in compliance with Article 4 of EU Council Directive 75/442/EEC.
Dell does not use internal batteries based on Mercury (Hg) and its
Mercury
compounds.
Dell does not use internal batteries based on Cadmium (Cd) and its
Cadmium
compounds.
Batteries
Dell does not use internal batteries based on Lead (Pb) and its
Lead
compounds.
This product uses a Lithium Ion Secondary Battery. Many
Other notebooks may also be equipped with a Lithium Ion Button Cell,
Nickel Metal Hydride, or a Lithium Coin Cell Primary battery
Lamps, Bulbs, At least one (1) Mercury
*
based lamp is present in each notebook
and other computer. Maximum mercury content is less than 5 mg of mercury
Lighting per lamp.
Mercury
Applications
* Dell laptops launched effective 2010 do not contain mercury as lighting source.
Other parts used in Dell products can not contain intentionally
Other Uses
added Mercury.
Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD)
Product does contain an LCD greater than 100 cm2.
- > 100 cm2
Cathode Ray Tubes (CRT)
Product does not contain a CRT
This product may contain plastic parts with Brominated flame
retardants. Plastic parts location can be visually identified by their
typical design function for the product (also shown in the service
manual).
See reference plastic list
- Many of these parts (Greater than 25 grams) are bromine free.
Regardless, these parts are labeled (usually molded directly
into the plastic) per ISO 11469.
A typical label would look like:
> Polymer Abbreviation - FR(#) <
i.e. > PC+ABS FR(40) <
Flame retardant codes (FR(#)) are given in ISO 1043-4. Codes for
some Brominated flame retardants:
14 aliphatic/alicyclic Brominated compounds
15 aliphatic/alicyclic Brominated compounds in combination with
Plastic containing Brominated
antimony compounds
flame retardants other than in
16 aromatic Brominated compounds (excluding Brominated
PCB / PCA
diphenyl ether and biphenyls)
17 aromatic Brominated compounds (excluding Brominated
diphenyl ether and biphenyls) in combination with antimony
compounds
22 aliphatic/alicyclic chlorinated and Brominated compounds
42 Brominated organic phosphorus compounds
- Plastics parts weighing less than 25 grams may or may not
contain brominated flame retardants. These smaller plastics
parts may include: Fan impeller, speaker, keycaps, thermal
plate, plastics in power adapter
Recycler should treat these parts separately. For more information

beryllium alloy, which contains less than 2% beryllium. CuBe alloys
Beryllium and its compounds
may be used in various components such as connectors, switches,
(including Beryllium Oxide)
relays, current carrying springs, integrated circuit sockets, and RF
shielding.
