Preparing to Work Inside the Computer

CAUTION: Only a certified service technician should perform repairs on your

computer. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by

your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions in the Owner's Manual that

came with the computer.

CAUTION: To prevent static damage to components inside your computer, discharge

static electricity from your body before you touch any of your computer's electronic

components. You can do so by touching an unpainted metal surface.

CAUTION: Handle components and cards with care. Do not touch the components or

contacts on a card. Hold a card by its edges or by its metal mounting bracket. Hold a

component such as a microprocessor by its edges, not by its pins.

NOTICE: When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its strain-relief loop, not on

the cable itself. Some cables have a connector with locking tabs; if you are disconnecting this

type of cable, press in on the locking tabs before you disconnect the cable. As you pull

connectors apart, keep them evenly aligned to avoid bending any connector pins. Also, before

you connect a cable, ensure that both connectors are correctly oriented and aligned.

NOTICE: To avoid damaging the computer, perform the following steps before you begin

working inside the computer.

1. Ensure that the work surface is flat and clean to prevent scratching the computer cover.

2. Save any work in progress and exit all open programs.

3. Turn off the computer and all attached devices.

4. If the computer is connected to a docking device (docked), undock it.

5. Disconnect the computer from the electrical outlet.

6. To avoid possible damage to the system board, wait 10 to 20 seconds and then disconnect any

attached devices.

7. Disconnect all other external cables from the computer.

8. Remove any installed PC Cards from the PC Card slot.

9. Close the display and turn the computer upside down on a flat work surface.

NOTICE: To avoid damaging the system board, you must remove the main battery before you

service the computer.

10. Slide and hold the battery-bay latch release on the bottom of the computer, and then remove

the battery from the bay.

11. Remove any installed memory modules, Mini PCI cards, and devices, including a second battery

if one is installed.
