CAUTION:

Only a certified service technician is authorized to remove

the computer cover and access any of the components inside the
computer. See the safety instructions for complete information
about safety precautions, working inside your computer, and
protecting against electrostatic discharge.

CAUTION:

Before touching anything inside your computer, ground

yourself by touching an unpainted metal surface, such as the metal
at the back of the computer. While you work, periodically touch an
unpainted metal surface to dissipate static electricity, which could
harm internal components.

CAUTION:

When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on

its pull-tab, not on the cable itself. Some cables have connectors with
locking tabs or thumb-screws that you must disengage before
disconnecting the cable. When disconnecting cables, keep them
evenly aligned to avoid bending any connector pins. When
connecting cables, ensure that the connectors and ports are
correctly oriented and aligned.

CAUTION:

To disconnect a network cable, first unplug the cable from

your computer and then unplug the cable from the network device.

CAUTION:

Press and eject any installed card from the media-card

reader.
