Safety information Safety information This chapter presents the following safety information that you need to get familiar with before you service a Lenovo ideapad 320S-15ABR/ Lenovo ideapad 320S-15AST computer: • “General safety” on page 2 • “Electrical safety” on page 3 • “Safety inspection guide” on page 5 • “Handling devices that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge” on page 6 • “Grounding requirements” on page 6 • “Safety notices: multilingual translations” on page 7 • “Laser compliance statement” on page 14...
Lenovo ideapad 320S-15ABR/Lenovo ideapad 320S-15AST Hardware Maintenance Manual General safety Follow these rules below to ensure general safety: • Observe a good housekeeping in the area where the machines are put during and after the maintenance. • 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 it. 4. Lift it by standing or pushing up with your leg muscles; this action could avoid 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. • Do not perform any action that causes hazards to the customer, or that makes the machine unsafe.
Safety information Electrical safety Observe the following rules when working on electrical equipments. Important: Use only approved tools and test equipments. Some hand tools have handles covered with a soft material that does not insulate you when working with live electrical currents. Many customers have rubber floor mats near their machines that contain small conductive fibers to decrease electrostatic discharges.

Lenovo ideapad 320S-15ABR/Lenovo ideapad 320S-15AST Hardware Maintenance Manual • 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. • 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. • 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.) • If an electrical accident occurs:...
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-Lenovo alterations. Use good judgment as to the safety of any non-Lenovo 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.
Lenovo ideapad 320S-15ABR/Lenovo ideapad 320S-15AST Hardware Maintenance Manual 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.

Lenovo ideapad 320S-15ABR/Lenovo ideapad 320S-15AST Hardware Maintenance Manual Laser compliance statement Some models of Lenovo computer are equipped from the factory with an optical storage device such as a CD-ROM drive or a DVD-ROM drive. Such devices are also sold separately as options. If one of these drives is installed, it is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of the Department of Health and Human Services 21 Code of Federal Regulations (DHHS 21 CFR) Subchapter J for Class 1 laser products. Elsewhere, the drive is certified to conform to the requirements of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 825 and CENELEC EN 60 825 for Class 1 laser products.

Safety information A CD-ROM drive, a DVD-ROM drive, or any other storage device installed may contain an embedded Class 3A or Class 3B laser diode. Note the following: DANGER Emits visible and invisible laser radiation when open. Do not stare into the beam, do not view directly with optical instruments, and avoid direct exposure to the beam. Radiação por raio laser ao abrir. Não olhe fixo no feixe de luz, não olhe diretamente por meio de instrumentos óticos e evite exposição direta com o feixe de luz.
Strategy for replacing FRUs Before replacing parts: Make sure that all software fixes, drivers, and BIOS downloads are installed 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, follow the steps below: 1. Go to http://support.lenovo.com. 2. Enter the serial number or select a product or use Lenovo smart downloading. 3. Select the BIOS/Driver/Applications and download. 4. Follow the directions on the screen and install the necessary software.
Important service information Use the following strategy to prevent unnecessary expense for replacing and servicing FRUs: • If you are instructed to replace an FRU, but the replacement does not solve the problem, reinstall the original FRU before you continue. • Some computers have both a processor board and a system board. If you are instructed to replace either of them, and replacing one of them does not solve the problem, reinstall that board, and then replace the other one. • 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.
Note: RoHS and non-RoHS FRU part numbers with the same fit and function are identified with unique FRU part numbers. Lenovo plans to transit 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.
