Handling static-sensitive devices
Do not open the static-protective package containing the new part until the
defective part has been removed from the computer and you are ready to install
the new part. Static electricity, although harmless to you, can seriously damage
computer components and parts.
When you handle parts and other computer components, take these precautions to
avoid static-electricity damage:
v Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around
you.
v Always handle parts and other computer components carefully. Handle
adapters, memory modules, system boards, and microprocessors by the edges.
Never touch any exposed circuitry.
v Prevent others from touching the parts and other computer components.
v Before you replace a new part, touch the static-protective package containing the
part to a metal expansion-slot cover or other unpainted metal surface on the
computer for at least two seconds. This reduces static electricity in the package
and your body.
v When possible, remove the new part from the static-protective packaging, and
install it directly in the computer without setting the part down. When this is
not possible, place the static-protective package that the part came in on a
smooth, level surface and place the part on it.
v Do not place the part on the computer cover or other metal surface.

Connector Description
USB connector Used to attach a device that requires a Universal Serial Bus
(USB) connection, such as a USB keyboard, USB mouse, USB
scanner or USB printer. If you have more than eight USB
devices, you can purchase a USB hub, which you can use to
connect additional USB devices.
Ethernet connector Used to attach an Ethernet cable for a local area network
(LAN).
Note: To operate the computer within FCC Class B limits, use
a Category 5 Ethernet cable.
Serial connector Used to attach an external modem, serial printer, or other
devices that use a 9-pin serial connector.
Parallel connector Used to attach a parallel printer, parallel scanner, or other
devices that use a 25-pin parallel connector.
Audio line-in connector Used to receive audio signals from an external audio device,
such as a stereo system. When you attach an external audio
device, a cable is connected between the audio line-out
connector of the device and the audio line-in connector of the
computer.
Audio line-out connector Used to send audio signals from the computer to external
devices, such as powered stereo speakers (speakers with
built-in amplifiers), headphones, multimedia keyboards, or the
audio line-in connector on a stereo system or other external
recording device.
SPDIF connector Used to send digital audio signals from a computer to an
external device (such as an amplifier/receiver), through an
optical cable.

Chapter 3. Installing options and replacing hardware
This chapter is an introduction to the features and options that are available for
your computer. You can expand the capabilities of your computer by adding
memory, adapters, or drives. When installing an option, use these instructions
along with the instructions that come with the option.
Attention
Do not open your computer or attempt any repair before reading the “Important safety
information” in the Safety and Warranty Guide that was included with your computer. To
obtain a copy of the Safety and Warranty Guide, go to the Support Web site at:
http://www.lenovo.com/support/
Note: Use only parts provided by Lenovo.
Installing external options
External speakers, a printer, or a scanner can be connected to your computer. For
some external options, you must install additional software in addition to making
the physical connection. When adding an external option, see “Locating connectors
on the rear of your computer” on page 6 and “Locating controls and connectors on
the front of your computer” on page 5 to identify the required connector, and then
use the instructions that are included with the option to help you make the
connection and install any software or device drivers that are required for the
option.
