4. Avoid interference. Keep the computer away from high capacity transformers, electric motors, and oth er strong mag- netic fields. These can hinder proper performance and damage your data.
5. Take care when using peripheral devices.
VI
Use only approved brands of peripherals.
Unplug the power cord befor e attaching peripheral devices.
Power Safety
The computer has specific power requirements:
Only use a power adapter approved for use with this computer.
Your AC adapter may be designed for international travel but it still requires a stea dy, uninterrupted po wer supply. If you ar e unsure of your local power specifications, consult your service representative or local power company.
The power adapter may have either a 2-prong or a 3-prong grounded plug. The third prong is an important safety feature; do not defeat its purpose. If you do not have access to a compatible outlet, have a qualified electrician install one.
When you want to unplug the power cord, be sure to disconnect it by the plug head, not by its wire.
Make sure the socket and any extension cord(s) you use can support the total current load of all the connected devices.
Before cleaning the computer, make sure it is disconnected from any external power supplies.
Do not plug in the power cord if you are wet.
Do not use the power cord if it is broken.
Do not place heavy objects on the power cord.

At the end of its useful life, under var­ious state and local laws, it may be illegal to dispose of this battery into the municipal waste stream. Check with your local solid waste officials for details in your area for recycling options or proper disposal.
Caution
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used battery according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Battery Level
Click the battery icon in the taskbar to see the current battery level and charge status. A battery that drops below a level of 10% will not allow the computer to boot up. Make sure that any battery that drops below 10% is recharged within one week.
Only use batteries designed for this computer. The wrong battery type may explode, leak or damage the computer.
Do not continue to use a battery that has been dropped, or that appears damaged (e.g. bent or twisted) in any way. Even if the computer continues to work with a damaged battery in place, it may cause circuit damage, which may possibly result in fire.
Recharge the batteries using the notebook’s system. Incorrect recharging may make the battery explode.
Do not try to repair a battery pack. Refer any battery pack repair or replacement to your service representative or qualified service personnel.
Keep children away from, and promptly dispose of a damaged battery. Always dispose of batteries carefully. Batteries may explode or leak if exposed to fire, or improperly handled or discarded.
Keep the battery away from metal appliances.
Affix tape to the battery contacts before disposing of the battery.
Do not touch the battery contacts with your hands or metal objects.

Battery Guidelines

The following can also apply to any backup batteries you may have.
If you do not use the battery for an extended period, then remove the battery from the computer for storage.
Before removing the battery for storage charge it to 60% - 70%.
Check stored batteries at least every 3 months and charge them to 60% - 70%.

Chapter 2: Disassembly

Information
Warning

Overview

This chapter provides step-by-step instructions for disassembling the S3100/S3100M series notebook’s parts and sub­systems. When it comes to reassembly, reverse the procedures (unless otherwise indicated).
We suggest you completely review any procedure before you take the computer apart.
Disassembly
Procedures such as upgrading/replacing the RAM, optical device and hard disk are included in the User’s Manual but are repeated here for your convenience.
To make the disassembly process easier each section may have a box in the page margin. Information contained under the figure # will give a synopsis of the sequence of procedures involved in the disassembly procedure. A box with a lists the relevant parts you will have after the disassembly process is complete. Note: The parts listed will be for the dis­assembly procedure listed ONLY, and not any previous disassembly step(s) required. Refer to the part list for the previ­ous disassembly procedure. The amount of screws you should be left with will be listed here also.
A box with a will also provide any possible helpful information. A box with a contains warnings.
An example of these types of boxes are shown in the sidebar.
2.Disassembly
Overview 2 - 1
Disassembly
2.Disassembly
NOTE: All disassembly procedures assume that the system is turned OFF, and disconnected from any power supply (the battery is removed too).

Maintenance Tools

The following tools are recommended when working on the notebook PC:
M3 Philips-head screwdriver
M2.5 Philips-head screwdriver (magnetized)
M2 Philips-head screwdriver
Small flat-head screwdriver
Pair of need le-nose pliers
Anti-static wrist-strap

Connections

Connections within the computer are one of four types:
Locking collar sockets for ribbon connectors To release these connectors, use a small flat-head screwdriver to
gently pry the locking collar away from its base. When replac­ing the connection, make sure the connector is oriented in the same way. The pin1 side is usually not indicated.
2 - 2 Overview
Pressure sockets for multi-wire connectors To release this connector type, grasp it at its head and gently
rock it from side to side as you pull it out. Do not pull on the wires themselves. When replacing the connection, do not try to force it. The socket only fits one way.
Pressure sockets for ribbon connectors To release these connectors, use a small pair of needle-nose pli-
ers to gently lift the connector away from its socket. When re­placing the connection, make sure the connector is oriented in the same way. The pin1 side is usually not indicated.
Board-to-board or multi-pin sockets To separate the boards, gently rock them from side to side as
you pull them apart. If the connection is very tight, use a small flat-head screwdriver - use just enough force to start.

Maintenance Precautions

Power Safety
Warning
Before you undertake any upgrade proce­dures, make sure that you have turned off the power, and discon­nected all peripherals and cables (including telephone lines). It is advisable to also re­move your battery in order to prevent acci­dentally turning the machine on.
The following precautions are a reminder. To avoid personal injury or damage to the computer while performing a re­moval and/or replacement job, take the following precautions:
1. Don't drop it. Perform your repairs and/or upgrades on a stable surface. If the computer falls, the case and other components could be damaged.
2. Don't overheat it. Note the proximity of any heating elements. Keep the computer out of direct sunlight.
3. Avoid interference. Note the proximity of any high capacity transformers, electric motors, and other strong mag- netic fields. These can hinder proper performance and damage component s and/or data. You should also monitor the position of magnetized tools (i.e. screwdrivers).
4. Keep it dry. This is an electrical appliance. If water or any other liquid gets into it, the computer could be badly damaged.
5. Be careful with power. Avoid accidental shocks, discharges or explosions.
•Before removing or servicing any part from the computer, turn the computer off and detach any power supplies.
•When you want to unplug the power cord or any cable/wire, be sure to disconnect it by the plug head. Do not pull on the wire.
6. Peripherals – Turn off and detach any peripherals.
7. Beware of static discharge. ICs, such as the CPU and main support chips, are vulnerable to static electricity. Before handling any part in the computer, discharge any static electricity inside the computer. When handling a printed circuit board, do not use gloves or other materials which allow static electricity buildup. We suggest that you use an anti-static wrist strap instead.
8. Beware of corrosion. As you perform your job, avoid touching any connector leads. Even the cleanest hands pro­duce oils which can attract corrosive elements.
9. Keep your work environment clean. Tobacco smoke, dust or other air-born particulate matter is often attracted to charged surfaces, reducing performance.
10. Keep track of the components. When removing or replacing any part, be careful not to leave small p arts, such as screws, loose inside the computer.

Cleaning

Do not apply cleaner directly to the computer, use a soft clean cloth. Do not use volatile (petroleum distillates) or abrasive cleaners on any part of the computer.
