3Hazardous VoltageThere is hazardous voltage present inside thecomputer when it is connected to an ACsupply, even when the computer’s powerswitch is off. Exposure to hazardous voltagecould cause personal injury. To avoid risk ofinjury, contact an Authorized Service Providerfor proper (un)installation of optionalhardware devices.Avoid Electrostatic DischargeElectrostatic electricity can easily damagecircuit cards and integrated circuits (ICs). Toreduce risk of damage, store them inprotective packaging whenever they are notinstalled in your system.Add-in cards can be extremely sensitive toESD and always require careful handling.After removing the card from the computer,place the card flat on a grounded, static-freesurface, component-side up. Use aconductive foam pad if available, but not thecard wrapper. Do not slide the card over anysurface.Before you install or remove memorymodules, video memory, disk drives, circuitcards or other devices, protect them fromstatic electricity. To do so, make sure yourcomputer’s power switch is OFF. Then,unplug the computer’s AC power cord. Beforepicking up the device you (un)install, youshould wear an anti-static wrist wrap(available at electronic supply stores). Besure to connect the wrist wrap to anunpainted metal portion of the computerchassis. As an alternative, you can dissipateelectrostatic build-up by touching anunpainted metal portion of the computerchassis with one hand. Then touch the deviceyou are (un)installing with the other hand, andmaintain continuous contact with it until it is(un)installed in the computer.Power Supply UnitUnder no circumstances should youattempt to disassemble the powersupply. The power supply containsno user-serviceable parts. Inside thepower supply are hazardousvoltages that can cause seriouspersonal injury. Always return adefective power supply to yourdealer.WARNINGEnsure that the notebook isdisconnected from its power sourceand from all telecommunicationslinks, networks, or modem lineswhenever the notebook cover isremoved. Do not operate thenotebook with the cover removed.AVERTISSEMENTAssurez-vous que le système estdébranché de son alimentation ainsique de toutes les liaisons detélécommunication, des réseaux, etdes lignes de modem avantd’enlever le capot.
