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.
