CAUTION: Only a certified service technician should perform repairs on your computer. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is
not covered by your warranty. Read and follow applicable instructions in the safety instructions in the Product Information Guide that came with
the computer.
CAUTION: To prevent static damage to components inside your computer, discharge static electricity from your body before you touch any of
your computer's electronic components. You can do so by touching an unpainted metal surface.

mounting bracket. Hold a component such as a microprocessor by its edges, not by its pins.
