Disassembly Instructions

This document contains step-by-step disassembly instructions for the iDesign

removed or disassembled. Furthermore, the screws that are removed are shown
next to the image of the parts themselves.

When disassembling the system unit, follow these general rules:

 Do not disassemble the system into parts that are smaller than those specified

in the instructions.

 Label all removed connectors. Note where the connector goes and in what

position it was installed.

 Turn off the power and disconnect all power and all options.

Electrostatic discharge can damage computer components.

Discharge static electricity by touching a metal object before

removing the system unit cover.

Reassembly Instructions

Reassembly is the reverse of the disassembly process. Use care to ensure that all
cables and screws are returned to their proper positions.
