CAUTION:

A CAUTION indicates either potential damage to hardware or loss of data and tells you how to avoid the problem.

The Dell Latitude 3540 contains both volatile and non-volatile (NV) components. Volatile components lose
their data immediately after power is removed from the component. Non-volatile (NV) components continue

to retain their data even after power is removed from the component. The following NV components are

present on the Latitude 3540 system board.
