Reassembly Notes

Caution

Be sure to replace display components with compatible parts. Components may be damaged if compatible parts are not used. See the table on page 2-12.

∙Before you install the display bracket, secure the inverter/MB cable to the case near the hinge area with a piece of Kapton tape.

∙Make sure the EPE foam is not placed under the display bracket. If there are flaps, they go on top of the bracket.

∙Position the right cable correctly before you install the hinge screws. It should protrude from the case almost 6 cm (about 2 inches).

∙Install each hinge so the slit in the housing faces into the display case.

∙Before installing the LCD module, make sure the EPE foam is properly positioned inside the display bracket.

∙Secure the LCD flex cable to the LCD module with a piece of Kapton tape next to the LCD connector.

∙Position the cables properly in the hinges before installing the bezel.

∙Make sure the bezel snaps to the case along all edges. Pull to the side to help seat the snaps.
