Statement of Volatility – Dell UltraSharp U2711 
CAUTION: A CAUTION indicates either potential damage to hardware or loss of data and tells you how to avoid the 
problem. 
The Dell UltraSharp U2711 monitor 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 system board.
