Preparing to Work Inside the Computer

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

computer. Damage or inoperability due to servicing not authorized by Dell is not

covered by your warranty.

NOTE: Unless otherwise noted, each procedure in this document assumes that a

part can be replaced by performing the removal procedure in reverse order.

NOTICE: To dissipate any static electricity while you work, periodically touch an

unpainted metal surface on the surface of the computer, such as the I/O panel

on the back of the computer chassis.

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

components or contacts on a card. Hold a card by it edges or by its metal

mounting bracket. Hold a component such as a microprocessor by its edges, not

working inside the computer.

2. Make sure that the work surface is clean to prevent scratching the computer

cover.

Screw Identification

Before removing and replacing components, photocopy the screw placemat as a tool

to help keep track of the screws. The placemat provides the number of screws and the

diameter and length. Make sure that the screw is properly aligned with its

corresponding hole, and avoid over tightening.
