Displays First Steps

Always perform the following steps before starting a repair:

  • Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Keep the power cord unplugged while the device is being repaired.

  • Disconnect all other cables from the device.

  • Clear and clean your workspace.

  • Put on an ESD wrist strap and attach it to a properly grounded ESD mat.

Caution

ESD (electrostatic discharge, or the release of static electricity) can damage electronic components.

Be aware of the following while performing a repair:

  • The manual for this model may show images of other models, but the procedures are the same. Ensure that you use the correct tools for the model you’re repairing.

  • Take your time. Thoroughly read all instructions and alerts.

  • Magnetizing the screwdrivers will make it easier to work with small screws.

  • Use only Kapton tape to secure cables and keep them out of the way when removing and reinstalling parts.

  • The end of each flex cable must align with its connector. Press the end of each flex cable to its connector until it clicks to ensure that it’s secure.
