Cables and Connectors

Cables must be handled with extreme care to avoid damage. Apply only the tension required to unseat or seat the cables during removal and insertion. Handle cables by the connector whenever possible. In all cases, avoid bending, twisting, or tearing cables. Ensure that cables are routed in such a way that they cannot be caught or snagged by parts being removed or replaced. Handle flex cables with extreme care; they tear easily.

CAUTION: When servicing the computer, ensure that cables are placed in their proper location during the reassembly process. Improper cable placement can damage the computer.

4.3 Preventing Damage to Removable Drives

Removable drives are fragile components that must be handled with care. To prevent damage to the computer or a removable drive, or loss of information, observe these precautions:

Before removing or inserting a hard drive, shut down the computer. If you are unsure whether the computer is off or in Hibernation, turn the computer on, then shut it down.

Before removing a diskette drive, CD-ROM drive, SuperDisk LS-120 drive, or a DVD-ROM drive, ensure that a diskette or disc is not in the drive. Ensure that the drive tray is closed.

Before handling a drive, ensure that you are discharged of static electricity. While handling a drive, avoid touching the connector.

Handle drives on surfaces that have at least one inch of shock-proof foam.

Avoid dropping drives from any height onto any surface.

Do not use excessive force when inserting a drive into a drive bay.

Avoid exposing a hard drive to products that have magnetic fields such as monitors or speakers.

Avoid exposing a drive to temperature extremes or to liquids.

If a drive must be mailed, ship it in a suitable form of protective packaging. Shipping the drive in standard packaging may not cushion it from destructive shock, vibration, temperature, or humidity. Place a mailing label with the wording “Fragile: Handle With Care” on the mailer.

After the hard drive has been removed from the computer, avoid turning the hard drive and tray upside down. The drive is not secured to the tray and can fall out.

Do not place labels on the ventilation area on the hard drive.

Heed the labels on the hard drive.
