See Chapter 4, “Removal and Replacement Preliminaries,” for initial procedures.

To prepare the computer for disassembly, complete the following steps:

1. Remove any diskette, compact disc, or tape from the computer.

2. Turn off the computer and any peripheral devices that are connected to it.

CAUTION: Turn off the computer before disconnecting any cables.

3. Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet and then from the computer.

4. Disconnect all peripheral device cables from the computer.

During disassembly, label each cable as you remove it, noting its position and routing.
Keep all screws with the units removed.

CAUTION: The screws used in the computer are of different thread sizes and lengths; using the wrong
screw in an application may damage the unit.
