4.1 General 4 Replacement Procedures General This chapter explains how to disassemble the laptop and replace Field Replaceable Units (FRUs). Some replacement procedures may not require you to remove all the surrounding FRUs to replace only one FRU. The chart below shows the FRUs in the order in which they should be removed in a top-down manner, irrespective of their physical locations.
DANGER: Always use the original batteries or replacement batteries authorized by Toshiba. Batteries other than those differ in specifications and are incompatible with the laptop. They may burst or explode. To avoid leakage of alkaline solutions, never heat or disassemble the battery packs.
Page 139
For AC input, be sure to use the AC adapter and AC power cable that come with your laptop or Toshiba-recommended equivalents. To avoid the risk of electrical shock, make sure that all the replacement components meet the specifications of the laptop and that all the cables and connectors are fastened securely.
4 Replacement Procedures 4.1 General Before You Begin Before you begin to disassemble the laptop, keep in mind the precautions and advice in this section. Always begin disassembly by removing the AC adapter and battery pack. Remove the optional parts and accessories as well. The procedures for removing the batteries will be explained later.
4.1 General 4 Replacement Procedures Disassembly Procedures The cable connectors come in these two basic types: Pressure plate connectors Normal pin connectors To remove a pressure plate connector, pull up the tabs on either side of the connector's plastic pressure plate and gently pull the cable out of the connector. To reconnect the cable to the pressure plate's connector, raise the pressure plate up to a satisfactory height and slide the cable into the connector.
4 Replacement Procedures 4.1 General Tools and Equipment For your safety and that of other people in the working environment, it is strongly recommended that you use electrostatic discharge (ESD) equipment. The proper use of this equipment will ensure successful repair work and reduce the costs for repairing damaged components.

Appendix A Appendix A Handling the LCD Module Precautions for handling the LCD module The LCD module can be easily damaged during assembly or disassembly. Observe the following precautions when handling it to prevent damaging it. 1. When installing the LCD module in the display assembly, make sure that you seat it so that it is properly aligned and maximum visibility of the display is maintained.
Page 198
3. If the panel’s surface gets dirty or moist, wipe it with cotton or a soft cloth. If it is still dirty, try breathing on the surface to create a light condensate and wipe it again. If the surface is very dirty, we recommend a CRT cleaning agent. Apply the agent to a soft cloth and then wipe the panel’s surface.
Page 199
5. Glass is used in the panel, so be careful not to drop it or let it strike a hard object, which could cause breakage or cracks. 6. CMOS-LSI circuits are used in the module, so guard against damage from electrostatic discharge.
Page 200
7. Do not expose the module to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet rays for long periods. 8. Do not store the module at temperatures below its specifications. Cold can cause the liquid crystals to freeze, lose their elasticity or otherwise suffer damage. 9.
Page 201
10. If you transport the module, do not use packing material that contains epoxy resin (amine) or silicon glue (alcohol or oxime). These materials can release gas that can damage the panel’s polarization. [CONFIDENTIAL] Satellite L670/L675/ProL675 Series Maintenance Manual...
