Contacting Dell: Dell PowerEdge 8450 Systems Installation and
Troubleshooting Guide
Overview International
Dialing Codes Americas Contact Numbers Europe Contact Numbers Asia and Other Regions
Contact Numbers
When you need to contact Dell, use the telephone numbers, codes, and
electronic addresses provided in the following sections. "International Dialing Codes" provides the
various codes required to make long-distance and international calls. "Americas Contact Numbers," "Europe
Contact Numbers," and "Asia and Other Regions Contact
Numbers" provide local telephone numbers, area codes, toll-free numbers, and
E-mail addresses, 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 "International Dialing Codes," in addition to
the local numbers provided in the other sections.
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.
 |
NOTES: 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. Have your Express Service Code ready when
you call. The code helps Dell's automated-support telephone system direct your call more
efficiently. |
