Strictly follow the instructions whenever the
components are repaired and/or replaced.
Caution Markings for Lithium/Ion Battery - The
following or similar texts shall be provided on
battery pack of equipment or in both the operating
and the service instructions.
CAUTION: Danger of explosion if battery is
incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same
or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used batteries according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
CAUTION: The battery pack used in this device
may present a fi re or chemical burn hazard if
mistreated. Do not disassemble, heat above 60°C
(140°F) or incinerate. Dispose of used battery
promptly. Keep away from children.
CAUTION: Changing the back up battery.
• Overcharging, short circuiting, reverse charging, multilation or incineration of the cells must
be avoided to prevent one or more of the following occurrences; release of toxic materials,
release of hydrogen and/or oxygen gas, rise in
surface temperature.
• If a cell has leaked or vented, it should be
replaced immediately while avoiding to touch
it without any protection.
Service and Inspection Precautions
1. Obey precautionary markings and
instructions
Labels and stamps on the cabinet, chassis, and
components identify areas requiring special precautions. Be sure to observe these precautions,
as well as all precautions listed in the operating
manual and other associated documents.
2. Use designated parts only
The set’s components possess important safety
characteristics, such as noncombustibility and
the ability to tolerate large voltages. Be sure that
replacement parts possess the same safety characteristics as the originals. Also remember that the
mark, which appears in circuit diagrams and
parts lists, denotes components that have particularly important safety functions; be extra sure to
use only the designated components.
3. Always follow the original design
when mounting parts and routing
wires
The original layout includes various safety features, such as inclusion of insulating materials
(tubes and tape) and the mounting of parts above
the printer board. In addition, internal wiring has
been routed and clamped so as to keep it away
from hot or high-voltage parts. When mounting
parts or routing wires, therefore, be sure to duplicate the original layout.
4. Inspect after completing service
After servicing, inspect to make sure that all
screws, components, and wiring have been
returned to their original condition. Also check
the area around the repair location to ensure that
repair work has caused no damage, and confi rm
safety.
5. When replacing chip components...
Never reuse components. Also remember that
the negative side of tantalum capacitors is easily
damaged by heat.
6. When handling flexible print
boards...
• The temperature of the soldering-iron tip
should be about 270°C.
• Do not apply the tip more than three times to
the same pattern.
• Handle patterns with care; never apply force.
Caution: Remember that hard disk drives are
easily damaged by vibration. Always handle
with care.

EXPLODED VIEWS AND PARTS LIST
• The exploded views and parts list are compiled by blocks.
The sections are different depending on the model.
Please refer to list of contents shown on next page.
• Parts list is attached on the upper right portion of each EXPLODED VIEW.
• Items marked “*” are not stocked since they are seldom required for routine service.
Some delay should be anticipated when ordering these items.
• The parts marked “$” are the Reuse Parts.
• The parts marked with “&” indicates specifi c parts handling for Japan region.
Disregard “&” marking for other than Japan region.
• Color after discription in [ ] shows color variation name of the main body.
• The model that is accompanied by asterisk (∗) is the CTO model.
• Description of [∗∗∗MBx2], [∗∗∗MB], [∗∗∗GBx2], [∗∗∗GB]...indicates the following.
∗∗∗MB/∗∗∗GB: size of the part
x2: installed quantity at original production
• Be sure to use the parts marked with zx/sx together with the parts with the same number.
• When replacing the HDD of RAID setting, please exchange to the same HDD that was installed.
Basically, the parts marked “z” should be used for service.
The parts marked “s” in the parts list are substitution parts.
If the part marked “z” is not available, you can order the parts marked “s”, but it may
not be stocked.
The components identifi ed by mark or dotted
line with mark are critical for safety.
Replace only with part number specifi ed.
The components identifi ed by mark contain confi dential information.
Strictly follow the instructions whenever the components are repaired and/or specifi ed.
