General safety

Follow these rules to ensure general safety:
v Observe good housekeeping in the area of the machines during and after
maintenance.
v When lifting any heavy object:
1. Make sure that you can stand safely without slipping.
2. Distribute the weight of the object equally between your feet.
3. Use a slow lifting force. Never move suddenly or twist when you attempt to
lift.
4. Lift by standing or by pushing up with your leg muscles; this action removes
the strain from the muscles in your back. Do not attempt to lift any object that
weighs more than 16 kg (35 lb) or that you think is too heavy for you.
v Do not perform any action that causes hazards to the customer, or that makes
the equipment unsafe.
v Before you start the machine, make sure that other service representatives and
the customer’s personnel are not in a hazardous position.
v Place removed covers and other parts in a safe place, away from all personnel,
while you are servicing the machine.
v Keep your toolcase away from walk areas so that other people will not trip over
it.
v Do not wear loose clothing that can be trapped in the moving parts of a
machine. Make sure that your sleeves are fastened or rolled up above your elbows. If your hair is long, fasten it.
v Insert the ends of your necktie or scarf inside clothing or fasten it with a
nonconductive clip, about 8 centimeters (3 inches) from the end.
v Do not wear jewelry, chains, metal-frame eyeglasses, or metal fasteners for your
clothing. Attention: Metal objects are good electrical conductors.
v Wear safety glasses when you are hammering, drilling, soldering, cutting wire,
attaching springs, using solvents, or working in any other conditions that might be hazardous to your eyes.
v After service, reinstall all safety shields, guards, labels, and ground wires.
Replace any safety device that is worn or defective.
v Reinstall all covers correctly before returning the machine to the customer.
v Fan louvers on the machine help to prevent overheating of internal components.
Do not obstruct fan louvers or cover them with labels or stickers.

Electrical safety

Observe the following rules when working on electrical equipment.
Important:
Use only approved tools and test equipment. Some hand tools have handles covered with a soft material that does not insulate you when working with live electrical currents.
Many customers have, near their equipment, rubber floor mats that contain small conductive fibers to decrease electrostatic discharges. Do not use this type of mat to protect yourself from electrical shock.
v Find the room emergency power-off (EPO) switch, disconnecting switch, or
electrical outlet. If an electrical accident occurs, you can then operate the switch or unplug the power cord quickly.
v Do not work alone under hazardous conditions or near equipment that has
hazardous voltages.
v Disconnect all power before:
– Performing a mechanical inspection – Working near power supplies – Removing or installing main units
v Before you start to work on the machine, unplug the power cord. If you cannot
unplug it, ask the customer to power-off the wall box that supplies power to the machine, and to lock the wall box in the off position.
v If you need to work on a machine that has exposed electrical circuits, observe the
following precautions: – Ensure that another person, familiar with the power-off controls, is near you.
Attention: Another person must be there to switch off the power, if necessary.
– Use only one hand when working with powered-on electrical equipment;
keep the other hand in your pocket or behind your back. Attention: An electrical shock can occur only when there is a complete
circuit. By observing the above rule, you may prevent a current from passing through your body.
– When using testers, set the controls correctly and use the approved probe
leads and accessories for that tester.
– Stand on suitable rubber mats (obtained locally, if necessary) to insulate you
from grounds such as metal floor strips and machine frames.
Observe
the special safety precautions when you work with very high voltages;
Instructions for these precautions are in the safety sections of maintenance information. Use extreme care when measuring high voltages.
v Regularly inspect and maintain your electrical hand tools for safe operational
condition.
v Do not use worn or broken tools and testers.
v Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit. First, check that it
has been powered off.
v Always look carefully for possible hazards in your work area. Examples of these
hazards are moist floors, nongrounded power extension cables, power surges, and missing safety grounds.
Safety information 3
v Do not touch live electrical circuits with the reflective surface of a plastic dental
mirror. The surface is conductive; such touching can cause personal injury and machine damage.
v Do not service the following parts with the power on when they are removed
from their normal operating places in a machine: – Power supply units – Pumps – Blowers and fans – Motor generators
and similar units. (This practice ensures correct grounding of the units.)
v If an electrical accident occurs:
– Use caution; do not become a victim yourself. – Switch off power. – Send another person to get medical aid.

Safety inspection guide

The purpose of this inspection guide is to assist you in identifying potentially unsafe conditions. As each machine was designed and built, required safety items were installed to protect users and service personnel from injury. This guide addresses only those items. Yo u should use good judgment to identify potential safety hazards due to attachment of non-IdeaPad features or options not covered by this inspection guide.
If any unsafe conditions are present, you must determine how serious the apparent hazard could be and whether you can continue without first correcting the problem.
Consider these conditions and the safety hazards they present:
v Electrical hazards, especially primary power (primary voltage on the frame can
cause serious or fatal electrical shock)
v Explosive hazards, such as a damaged CRT face or a bulging capacitor
v Mechanical hazards, such as loose or missing hardware
determine whether there are any potentially unsafe conditions, use the
To following checklist at the beginning of every service task. Begin the checks with the power off, and the power cord disconnected.
Checklist:
1. Check exterior covers for damage (loose, broken, or sharp edges).
2. Power off the computer. Disconnect the power cord.
3. Check the power cord for:
a. A third-wire ground connector in good condition. Use a meter to measure
third-wire ground continuity for 0.1 ohm or less between the external ground pin and the frame ground.
b. The power cord should be the type specified in the parts list.
c. Insulation must not be frayed or worn.
4. Check for cracked or bulging batteries.
5. Remove the cover.
6. Check for any obvious non-IdeaPad alterations. Use good judgment as to the
safety of any non-IdeaPad alterations.
7. Check inside the unit for any obvious unsafe conditions, such as metal filings, contamination, water or other liquids, or signs of fire or smoke damage.
8. Check for worn, frayed, or pinched cables.
9. Check that the power-supply cover fasteners (screws or rivets) have not been
removed or tampered with.
Safety information 5

Handling devices that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge

Any computer part containing transistors or integrated circuits (ICs) should be considered sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD.) ESD damage can occur when there is a difference in charge between objects. Protect against ESD damage by equalizing the charge so that the machine, the part, the work mat, and the person handling the part are all at the same charge.
Notes:
1. Use product-specific ESD procedures when they exceed the requirements noted here.
2. Make sure that the ESD protective devices you use have been certified (ISO
9000) as fully effective.
When handling ESD-sensitive parts:
v Keep the parts in protective packages until they are inserted into the product.
v Avoid contact with other people.
v Wear a grounded wrist strap against your skin to eliminate static on your body.
v Prevent the part from touching your clothing. Most clothing is insulative and
retains a charge even when you are wearing a wrist strap.
v Use the black side of a grounded work mat to provide a static-free work surface.
The mat is especially useful when handling ESD-sensitive devices.
v Select a grounding system, such as those listed below, to provide protection that
meets the specific service requirement.
Note:
use of a grounding system to guard against ESD damage is desirable but not
The necessary.
– Attach the ESD ground clip to any frame ground, ground braid, or green-wire
ground.
– When working on a double-insulated or battery-operated system, use an ESD
common ground or reference point. Yo u can use coax or connector-outside shells on these systems.
– Use the round ground prong of the ac plug on ac-operated computers.

Grounding requirements

Electrical grounding of the computer is required for operator safety and correct system function. Proper grounding of the electrical outlet can be verified by a certified electrician.

Strategy for replacing FRUs

Before replacing parts:
sure that all software fixes, drivers, and BIOS downloads are installed
Make before replacing any FRUs listed in this manual.
After a system board is replaced, ensure that the latest BIOS is loaded to the system board before completing the service action.
To download software fixes, drivers, and BIOS, do as follows:
1. Go to http://www.lenovo.com/support
2. Enter the product number of the computer or press Auto-detect button on the
screen.
3. Select Downloads and drivers.
4. Follow the directions on the screen and install the necessary software.
Use the following strategy to prevent unnecessary expense for replacing and servicing FRUs:
© Copyright Lenovo 2008, 2009 17
v If you are instructed to replace a FRU but the replacement does not correct the
problem, reinstall the original FRU before you continue.
v Some computers have both a processor board and a system board. If you are
instructed to replace either the processor board or the system board, and replacing one of them does not correct the problem, reinstall that board, and then replace the other one.
v If an adapter or a device consists of more than one FRU, any of the FRUs may
be the cause of the error. Before replacing the adapter or device, remove the FRUs, one by one, to see if the symptoms change. Replace only the FRU that changed the symptoms.
Attention: The setup configuration on the computer you are servicing may have been customized. Running Automatic Configuration may alter the settings. Note the current configuration settings (using the View Configuration option); then, when service has been completed, verify that those settings remain in effect.

Strategy for replacing a hard disk drive

Always try to run a low-level format before replacing a hard disk drive. This will cause all customer data on the hard disk to be lost. Be sure that the customer has a current backup of the data before doing this task.
Attention: The drive startup sequence in the computer you are servicing may have been changed. Be extremely careful during write operations such as copying, saving, or formatting. If you select an incorrect drive, data or programs can be overwritten.

Important notice for replacing a system board

Some components mounted on a system board are very sensitive. Improper handling of a system board can cause damage to those components, and may cause a system malfunction.
Attention: When handling a system board:
v Do not drop a system board or apply any excessive force to it.
v Avoid rough handling of any kind.
v Avoid bending a system board and hard pushing to prevent cracking at each
BGA (Ball Grid Array) chipset.

How to use error message

Use the error codes displayed on the screen to diagnose failures. If more than one error code is displayed, begin the diagnosis with the first error code. Whatever causes the first error code may also cause false error codes. If no error code is displayed, see whether the error symptom is listed in the Symptom-to-FRU Index for the computer you are servicing.

Strategy for replacing FRUs for CTO, CMV, and GAV

Product definition

Dynamic Configure To Order (CTO)
This provides the ability for a customer to configure an IBM® or a Lenovo solution from an eSite, and have this configuration sent to fulfillment, where it is built and shipped directly to the customer. The machine label, Product Entitlement Warehouse (PEW), eSupport, and the HMM will load these products as the 4-digit MT and 3-digit model, where model = “CTO” (Example: 1829-CTO).
Custom Model Variant (CMV)
This is a unique configuration that has been negotiated between IBM or Lenovo and the customer. A unique 4-digit MT and 3-digit model is provided to the customer to place orders (Example: 1829-W15). A CMV is a special bid offering. Therefore, it is NOT generally announced.
v The MTM portion of the machine label is the 4-digit MT and 3-digit model,
where model = “CTO” (Example: 1829-CTO). The PRODUCT ID portion of the machine label is the 4-digit MT and 3-digit CMV model (Example: 1829-W15).
v The PEW record is the 4-digit MT and 3-digit model, where model = “CTO”
(Example: 1829-CTO).
v eSupport will show both the CTO and CMV machine type models (Example:
1829-CTO and 1829-W15 will be found on the eSupport site.)
v The HMM will have the 4-digit MT and 3-digit CTO model only (Example:
1829-CTO). Again, CMVs are custom models and are not found in the HMM.
General Announce Variant (GAV)
This is a standard model (fixed configuration). GAVs are announced and offered to all customers. The MTM portion of the machine label is a 4-digit MT and 3-digit model, where model = a “fixed part number”, not “CTO” (Example: 1829-F1U). Also, PEW, eSupport, and the HMM will list these products under the same fixed model number.

FRU identification for CTO, CMV, and GAV products

There are three information resources to identify which FRUs are used to support CTO, CMV, and GAV products. These sources are PEW, eSupport, and the HMM.
Using PEW
v PEW is the primary source for identifying FRU part numbers and FRU
descriptions for the key commodities for CTO, CMV and GAV products at a MT
- serial number level. An example of key commodities are hard disk drives, system boards, microprocessors, Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs), and memory.
v Remember, all CTO and CMV products are loaded in PEW under the 4-digit MT
and 3-digit model, where model = “CTO” (Example: 1829-CTO). GAVs are loaded in PEW under the 4-digit MT and 3-digit model, where model = a “fixed part number”, not “CTO” (Example: 1829-F1U).
v PEW can be accessed at the following Web site:
http://www.lenovo.com/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=LOOK-WARNTY
Select Warranty lookup. Input the MT and the Serial number and the list of key commodities will be returned in the PEW record under COMPONENT INFORMATION.
Important service information 19
v Business Partners using Eclaim will access PEW when performing Entitlement
Lookup. Business Partners will enter Loc ID, MT and Serial, and the key commodities will be returned in the Eclaim record under SYSTEM DETAILS.

Important information about replacing RoHS compliant FRUs

RoHS, The Restriction of Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (2002/95/EC) is a European Union legal requirement affecting the global electronics industry. RoHS requirements must be implemented on Lenovo products placed on the market after June 2006. Products on the market before June 2006 are not required to have RoHS compliant parts. If the original FRU parts are non compliant, replacement parts can also be non compliant. In all cases if the original FRU parts are RoHS compliant, the replacement part must also be RoHS compliant.
Note: RoHS and non-RoHS FRU part numbers with the same fit and function are
identified with unique FRU part numbers.
Lenovo plans to transition to RoHS compliance well before the implementation date and expects its suppliers to be ready to support Lenovo’s requirements and schedule in the EU. Products sold in 2005 and 2006, will contain some RoHS compliant FRUs. The following statement pertains to these products and any product Lenovo produces containing RoHS compliant FRUs.
RoHS compliant FRUs have unique FRU part numbers. Before or after the RoHS implementation date, failed RoHS compliant parts must always be replaced using RoHS compliant FRUs, so only the FRUs identified as compliant in the system HMM or direct substitutions for those FRUs may be used.
Products marketed before June 2006 Products marketed after June 2006 Current or original

4. If the voltage is acceptable, do the following:
v Replace the system board. v If the problem persists, go to “IdeaPad S9e, S10e, and S10” on page 45.
Noise from the ac adapter does not always indicate a defect.
Note:

Checking operational charging

To check whether the battery charges properly during operation, use a discharged battery pack or a battery pack that has less than 50% of the total power remaining when installed in the computer.
General checkout 29
Perform operational charging. If the battery status indicator or icon does not turn on, remove the battery pack and let it return to room temperature. Reinstall the battery pack. If the charge indicator or icon still does not turn on, replace the battery pack.
If the charge indicator still does not turn on, replace the system board. Then reinstall the battery pack. If it is still not charged, go to the next section.

Checking the battery pack

Battery charging does not start until the Power Meter shows that less than 95% of the total power remains; under this condition the battery pack can charge to 100% of its capacity. This protects the battery pack from being overcharged or from having a shortened life.
To check your battery, move your cursor to the Power Meter icon in the icon tray of the Windows® taskbar and wait for a moment (but do not click), and the percentage of battery power remaining is displayed. To get detailed information about the battery, double-click the Power Meter icon.
Note: If the battery pack becomes hot, it may not be able to charge. Remove it from the computer and leave it at room temperature for a while. After it cools down, reinstall and recharge it.
To check the battery pack, do the following:
1. Power off the computer.
2. Remove the battery pack and measure the voltage between battery terminals 1
(+) and 7 (-). See the following figure:

As many as three passwords may be needed for any IdeaPad computer: the hard-disk password (HDP), the supervisor password (SVP), and the user password.
If any of these passwords has been set, a prompt for it appears on the screen whenever the computer is turned on. The computer does not start until the password is entered.
Exception: If only an SVP and a user password are installed, and Password on boot is set to Disabled, the password prompt does not appear when the operating
system is booted.

Hard-disk password

Note: Computers with the solid state drive (SSD) do not support the hard-disk password.
There are two hard-disk passwords (HDPs):
v User HDP—for the user
v Master HDP—for the system administrator, who can use it to get access to the
hard disk even if the user has changed the user HDP
The Master + User mode requires two HDPs; the system administrator
Note:
enters both in the same operation. The system administrator then provides the user HDP to the system user.
Attention:
If the user HDP has been forgotten, check whether the master HDP is
available. If it is, it can be used for access to the hard disk drive. If no master HDP is available, neither Lenovo nor Lenovo authorized servicers provide any services to reset either the user or the master HDP, or to recover data from the hard disk drive. The hard disk drive can be replaced, for a scheduled fee.
34 IdeaPad S9e, S10e, and S10 Hardware Maintenance Manual
For how to remove the HDP, see “How to remove the hard-disk password.”

Supervisor password

A supervisor password (SVP) protects the system information stored in the BIOS Setup Utility. The user enters the SVP to get access to the BIOS Setup Utility and change the system configuration. It also can be used as a power-on password (POP), if Password on boot is set to Enabled.
For how to remove the SVP, see “How to remove the supervisor password” on page 36.

User password

If a user password has been set and Password on boot is set to Enabled, a password prompt appears on the screen whenever the computer is turned on. The user password is also used to enter the BIOS Setup Utility, but only a part of the options can be set. The user password can be set only when the SVP has been set.
For how to remove the user password, see “How to remove the user password” on page 36.

Power-on password

A power-on password (POP) protects the system from being powered on by an unauthorized person. The password must be entered before an operating system can be booted. The SVP and the user password can be used as the POP, if Password on boot is set to Enabled.

How to remove the hard-disk password

Attention: If the user HDP has been forgotten and the master HDP cannot be made available to the servicer, neither Lenovo nor Lenovo authorized servicers provide any services to reset the user HDPs or to recover data from the hard disk drive. The hard disk drive can be replaced, for a scheduled fee.
To remove a user HDP that has been forgotten, when the SVP and the master HDP are known, do the following:
1. Turn on the computer.

Intermittent problems

Intermittent system hang problems can be due to a variety of causes that have nothing to do with a hardware defect, such as cosmic radiation, electrostatic discharge, or software errors. FRU replacement should be considered only when a problem recurs.
When analyzing an intermittent problem, do the following:
1. Run the diagnostic test for the system board in loop mode at least 10 times.
2. If no error is detected, do not replace any FRUs.
3. If any error is detected, replace the FRU shown by the FRU code. Rerun the
test to verify that no more errors exist.

Undetermined problems

If the diagnostic tests did not identify the adapter or device that has failed, if wrong devices are installed, or if the system simply is not operating, follow these procedures to isolate the failing FRU (do not isolate FRUs that have no defects).
Verify that all attached devices are supported by the computer.
Verify that the power supply being used at the time of the failure is operating correctly. (See “Power system checkout” on page 29.)
1. Turn off the computer.
2. Visually check each FRU for damage. Replace any damaged FRU.
3. Remove or disconnect all of the following devices: a. Non-IdeaPad devices b. Printer, mouse, and other external devices c. Battery pack d. Hard disk drive e. External diskette drive or optical drive f. DIMM g. Optical disk or diskette in the internal drive h. PC Cards
Turn on the computer.
4.
5. Determine whether the problem has been solved.
6. If the problem does not recur, reconnect the removed devices one at a time
until you find the failing FRU.
7. If the problem remains, replace the following FRUs one at a time (do not replace a nondefective FRU):

FRU replacement notices

This section contains notices related to removing and replacing parts. Read this section carefully before replacing any FRU.

Screw notices

Loose screws can cause a reliability problem. In the IdeaPad computer, this problem is addressed with special nylon-coated screws that have the following characteristics:
v They maintain tight connections. v They do not easily come loose, even with shock or vibration. v They are harder to tighten. v Each one should be used only once.
the following when you service this machine:
Do v Keep the screw kit (for the P/N, see “Miscellaneous parts” on page 123) in your
tool bag.
v Always use new screws. v Use a torque screwdriver if you have one.
Tighten
screws as follows:
v Plastic to plastic
Turn an additional 90 degrees after the screw head touches the surface of the plastic part:
90 degrees more
(Cross-section)
v Logic card to plastic
Turn an additional 180 degrees after the screw head touches the surface of the logic card:
180 degrees more
(Cross-section)
v Torque driver
If you have a torque driver, refer to the “Torque” column for each step.
v Make sure that you use the correct screw. If you have a torque screwdriver,
tighten all screws firmly to the torque shown in the table. Never use a screw
that you removed. Use a new one. Make sure that all of the screws are tightened firmly.
v Ensure torque screw drivers are calibrated correctly following country
specifications.

Retaining serial numbers

This section includes the following descriptions:
v “Restoring the Product Name and the P/N (part number) of the system unit” v “Retaining the UUID”
Restoring the Product Name and the P/N (part number) of the system unit
When the computer was manufactured, the EEPROM on the system board was loaded with the Product Name and the P/N (part number) of the system unit. These numbers need to remain the same throughout the life of the computer.
If you replace the system board, you must restore the Product Name and the P/N of the system unit to their original values.
Table 11. the Product Name and the P/N
BIOS menu text Meaning
Product Name Four digits for the machine type and three digits of the
model
P/N The seven-digit serial number of the system unit
Before replacing the system board, find the original Product Name and P/N by doing the following:
1. Boot the computer with DOS.
2. To see the Product Name, run the maintenance utility, FL1RW.EXE as follows:
> FL1RW.EXE /r MM
3. To see the P/N, run the maintenance utility, FL1RW.EXE as follows:
> FL1RW.EXE /r SN
4. Write down the result of each of these procedures.
The Product Name and the P/N of the system unit are also written on the
Note:
label attached to the bottom of the computer.
After you have replaced the system board, restore the Product Name and the P/N by doing the following:
1. Boot the computer with DOS.
2. To restore the product name, run the maintenance utility, FL1RW.EXE with the
‘/w MM’ option as the following example.
If the product name is 4068xxx,type the following command:
> FL1RW.EXE /w MM 4068xxx
3. To restore the P/N, run the maintenance utility, FL1RW.EXE with the ‘/w SN’ option as the following example.
If the P/N is LxxNNNN,type the following command:
> FL1RW.EXE /w SN LxxNNNN
Retaining the UUID
The Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) is a 128-bit number uniquely assigned to your computer at production and stored in the EEPROM of your system board. The algorithm that generates the number is designed to provide unique IDs until the year A.D. 3400. No two computers in the world have the same number.
52 IdeaPad S9e, S10e, and S10 Hardware Maintenance Manual
When you replace the system board, you must set the UUID on the new system board as follows:
1. Boot the system with DOS.
2. Run the maintenance utility, FL1RW.EXE as follows:
> FL1RW.EXE /w UU
A new UUID is created and written. If a valid UUID already exists, it is not overwritten.

Before removing any FRU, turn off the computer, unplug all power cords from electrical outlets, remove the battery pack, and then disconnect any interconnecting cables.
Attention: After replacing a FRU, do not turn on the computer until you have
made sure that all screws, springs, and other small parts are in place and none are loose inside the computer. Verify this by shaking the computer gently and listening for rattling sounds. Metallic parts or metal flakes can cause electrical short circuits.
Attention: The system board is sensitive to, and can be damaged by, electrostatic
discharge. Before touching it, establish personal grounding by touching a ground point with one hand or by using an electrostatic discharge (ESD) strap (P/N
6405959).
