The following table shows the Fn key and function key combinations and their corresponding functions.

The Fn key works independently from the operating system. The operating system obtains the status through the system management interface to control the system.

Use the following procedure as a guide for computer problems:

1. Ask the customer for as much detail as possible about the failing symptoms.
2. Verify the symptoms by attempting to recreate the failure either by running the diagnostics test or by repeating the same operation. (To run the diagnostics, refer to Running the Diagnostics.)
3. Use the following table with the verified symptom to determine which page to go to. Search the symptoms column and find the description that best matches your symptom, then, go to the page shown in the “Go to” column.

   Note: Before replacing any FRU, see FRU Removals and Replacements.

The diagnostic tests are intended to test only IBM products. Non-IBM products, prototype cards, or modified options can give false errors and invalid system responses.

Perform the following procedures to complete a general checkout:

1. Power-off the computer and all external devices.
2. Check all cables and power cords for correct connection.
3. Power-on all external devices.
4. Power-on the computer.
5. Press the F1 key any time while the POST memory count is proceeding. The computer emits one short beep at the end of POST and the Easy-Setup screen appears. If this does not occur, go to Symptom-to-FRU Index.
6. Run the advanced diagnostics tests. For information on how to run the diagnostics tests, see Running the Diagnostics. For information on how to disable the password, see Removing the Power-On Password.
7. Find your symptom in the table in Checkout Guide, and then go to the appropriate page. Otherwise, see Symptom-to-FRU Index, and then go to Undetermined Problems.

Remove the external keyboard if the internal keyboard is to be tested.

If the internal keyboard does not work or an unexpected character appears, make sure that the three flexible cables extending from the keyboard are correctly seated in the connectors on the top system board.

If the keyboard cable connection is correct, run the Keyboard Test by performing the following steps:

1. Power-off the computer, and then power it on again.
2. Press the F1 key any time while the POST memory count is proceeding. At the end of the memory test, the Easy-Setup screen appears.
3. Press the left or right arrow key to select Test and press Enter or position the pointer over the Test icon and click the left click button once.
4. Press Ctrl+A to enter advanced diagnostics.
5. Press Ctrl+K to start the keyboard diagnostics test.
6. Press each key. A shaded box appears in the corresponding key position on the keyboard layout on the screen. Press the key again to remove the box.

   Note: The shaded box appears in Fn only during the first keyboard test of a diagnostics session.

7. To exit from the test screen, press Esc.

If the tests detect a keyboard problem, perform the following tasks one at a time to correct the problem:

Note: Do not replace a nondefective FRU.

• Reseat the three cables.
• Replace the keyboard.
• Replace the top system board.

The following auxiliary input devices are supported for this computer through the MultiPort II:

• Numeric keypad
• Mouse (PS/2 compatible)
• External keyboard (standard PS/2 or with keyboard/mouse cable)

If any of the above devices do not work, reseat the cable connector and repeat the failing operation. If the problem does not reoccur, recheck the connector. If the problem reoccurs, repeat the operation with a device that is known to be good. If the problem still reoccurs, go to MultiPort II Checkout.

If the TrackPoint III does not work, check the configuration in the Configuration Utility by pressing PgDn to reach the I/O Management screen. If the setting for TrackPoint III is Off, press the left or right arrow to change it to On. If this does not correct the problem, continue with the following procedure:

Note: The TrackPoint III performs automatic compensations to adjust the pointer sensor. During this process, the pointer moves about the screen for a short time. This self-acting pointer movement can occur when a slight, steady pressure is applied to the TrackPoint III pointer when the computer is powered on, when the system is running, or when readjustment is required because the temperature has changed significantly within a short period of time or the temperature is higher than its operating temperature. This symptom does not indicate a hardware problem. No service actions are necessary if the pointer movement stops in a short period of time. However, the TrackPoint III will not stabilize if you apply pressure to it. If pointer movement occurs, you can go into Suspend mode, and then resume normal operation. Resuming or turning the computer on both cause the TrackPoint III to be calibrated, which may correct the problem. If you see continual movement of the pointer, the TrackPoint III is probably defective. In rare cases, the top system board can also cause this problem.

If a click-button problem or TrackPoint III problem occurs, perform the following steps:

1. Power-off the computer, and then power it on again.
2. Press the F1 key any time while the POST memory count is proceeding. At the end of the memory test, the Easy-Setup screen appears.
3. Select an item with the TrackPoint III.
4. Press either the left or right click button.
5. Verify that both buttons work correctly.

If either the TrackPoint III or the click button does not work, perform the following tasks one at a time to correct the problem:

Note: Do not replace a nondefective FRU.

• Reseat the three keyboard cables.
• Replace the keyboard.
• Replace the top system board.

Use the following procedure to isolate the diskette problem to a controller, drive, or diskette. For this test, you need a scratch, write-enabled, double-sided, high-density diskette (2.0MB that formats to 1.44MB) that is known to be good.

1. Power-off the computer.
2. Attach the external diskette drive if it is not already attached.
3. Power-on the computer.
4. Press the F1 key any time while the POST memory count is proceeding. When the memory test is completed, the Easy-Setup screen appears.
5. Press the left or right arrow key to select Test and press Enter or position the pointer over the Test icon and click the left click button once.
6. Press Ctrl+A to enter the advanced diagnostics.
7. Select the FDD-1 icon and press Enter. This runs the controller test and the drive read/write test.
8. If the controller test detects an error, FRU code 10 appears. First, replace the diskette drive and cable and run the test again. If FRU code 10 appears from this second test, replace the top system board.
9. If the controller test runs without errors, select Tool from the advanced diagnostics screen. (See Running the Diagnostics for instructions.) Select the FDD-1 icon and insert a scratch diskette to continue with the drive test.
10. Select the FDD-1 icon from the advanced diagnostics screen and press Enter.
11. If the drive test detects an error, FRU code 50 appears. Replace the drive or the drive cable.
12. To exit from the test screen, press Esc.

The green LED on a PC test card (JEIDA/PCMCIA wrap card) turns on when the PCMCIA test is running. If the LED does not turn on, check that the card is installed correctly by reseating the card. If it still does not turn on after the card is reseated and you are using one PC test card, try using the other slot for the test. If you are using two cards, try swapping the cards in the slots. If the LED still does not turn on and the test fails, replace the FRU shown in the diagnostics error code.

Depending on the amount of additional memory installed by the customer, the memory size that is available for customer use appears differently. This is not a hardware problem. Consult the following table for the available memory on a system with a 4MB base memory when the customer installs different sizes of small outline dual inline memory module (SO-DIMM).

The following table shows the available memory on a system with an 8MB base memory with different sizes of SO-DIMM.

Memory errors might stop system operations or cause error codes to be displayed.

Use the following procedure to isolate memory problems:

Note: Make sure that the SO-DIMM is fully installed in the connector. A loose connection can cause an error. For more information about installing SO-DIMMs, see FRU Removals and Replacements.

1. Power-on the computer. Press the F1 key any time while the POST memory count is proceeding. At the end of the memory test, the Easy-Setup screen appears.
2. Select Test and press Enter.
3. Press Ctrl+A to enter advanced diagnostics.

   • If an error appears below 3712KB on a system with a 4MB base memory (7808KB with an 8MB base memory), replace the bottom system board.
   • If an error appears above 3712KB on a system with 4MB base memory (7808KB with an 8MB base memory), replace the SO-DIMM.
5. If after replacing the SO-DIMM, an error above 3712KB on a system with a 4MB base memory or 7808KB with an 8MB base memory still appears, replace the bottom system board.
6. To exit from the test screen, press Esc.

If memory problems occur intermittently, use the loop option to repeat the test. For more information on running the loop test, see Running the Diagnostics. When the test detects an error, an error log is printed on the printer connected to the parallel port. See Printing and Displaying Error Logs for more information.

Do not replace FRUs because of a single, nonreproducible failure. Single failures can occur for a variety of reasons that have nothing to do with a hardware defect, such as electrostatic discharge or software errors. Consider replacing a FRU only when a recurring problem exists. If you suspect that problems besides a failing FRU exist, clear the error log and run the test again. Do not replace any FRUs if errors do not reoccur.

1. Power-off the computer.
2. Insert the hard disk drive to be tested.
3. Power-on the computer. Press the F1 key any time while the POST memory count is proceeding. When the memory test is completed, the Easy-Setup screen appears.

11. If the diagnostics tests do not find errors, suspect a problem with the previously attached devices.

    If the tests find errors, perform the following steps to recheck the computer:

    • Power-off the computer.
    • Remove the MultiPort II from the computer.
    • Power-on the computer and rerun the tests on the available parallel and serial ports.

    If the errors do not reoccur, replace the MultiPort II. If the errors persist, suspect that the errors are related to internal FRUs and replace the appropriate FRU (for information on FRU codes, see FRU Codes).

12. If power problems appear only when using the MultiPort II, replace the MultiPort II.
13. To exit from the test screen, press Esc.

The infrared transceiver is located on the inverter card in the ThinkPad 701C / 701CS. When you run diagnostics on the infrared transceiver, the test is actually checking the top system board, not the infrared transceiver itself. Therefore, complete the following steps before running diagnostics or replacing any FRUs.

If the customer cannot establish a connection between the ThinkPad 701C / 701CS and a remote system, perform the following steps:

1. Ensure that the device the customer attempted to connect with is an Infrared Data Association (IRDA) compliant device.
2. Check to make sure that both systems are using the same revision level of the same software.
3. Check setup options on both systems to ensure that the baud rate and other setup parameters are the same.
4. Check the Configuration Utility to ensure that the infrared transceiver is assigned to the same serial port that is designated in the application software and that the IRQ assignment is not shared with any other device such as the internal modem or external serial port on the MultiPort II.
5. Verify that the two systems are in close proximity (less than 1 meter [3.2 feet] apart for IRDA-compliant devices) and that the infrared transceiver window on the ThinkPad 701C / 701CS is aligned with (directly opposite) the remote device's window.
6. Ensure that the windows on both systems are clean and unobstructed.

If the two systems still will not connect after you have followed the preceding steps and the remote system is another computer with a terminal program (for example, Windows Terminal or Procomm) installed, perform the following tests:

1. Set up the terminal application on each system to communicate with the infrared transceiver serial port at a speed of 115KB per second.
2. Type characters on the ThinkPad 701C / 701CS keyboard and check to see whether or not these characters appear on the remote system. (Note that the characters you type will not appear on the ThinkPad 701C / 701CS system.)
3. Type characters on the remote keyboard and check to see whether or not these characters appear on the ThinkPad 701C / 701CS system.
4. If characters do not appear in either step 2 or 3 and you are certain that infrared is working correctly on the remote system, replace the inverter card.
5. If characters do appear, consult the software vendor to ensure that the customer is using a compatible software package and that the setup parameters are correct.

If data transfers between the ThinkPad 701C / 701CS and the remote system are slow or unstable:

1. Verify that the two systems are in close proximity (less than 1 meter [3.2 feet] apart for IRDA-compliant devices) and that the infrared window on the ThinkPad 701C / 701CS is aligned with the remote device's window.
2. Ensure that the windows on both systems are clean and unobstructed.
3. If you are using TranXit, check the IRDELAY parameter in the TRANXIT.INI file in the TRANXIT directory. The parameter should be set to 10.

To run the diagnostics test on the infrared transceiver, perform the following steps:

1. Power-off the computer, and then power it on again.
2. Press the F1 key any time while the POST memory count is proceeding. When the memory test is completed, the Easy-Setup screen appears.
3. Press the left or right arrow key to select Test and press Enter or position the pointer over the Test icon and click the left click button once.
4. Press Ctrl+A to enter advanced diagnostics.
5. Select Infrared and press Enter to run the test on the infrared transceiver. Test results will be displayed under the Infrared icon.
6. If no errors are detected, the OK message appears.
7. If an error is detected, the FRU code and error description message appear. Go to FRU Codes and replace the FRU.
8. To exit from the test screen, press Esc.

For a more thorough test, use one PCMCIA card in each slot. Perform the following steps to test the PCMCIA slots:

1. Power-off the computer, and then power it on again.
2. Press the F1 key any time while the POST memory count is proceeding. When the memory test is completed, the Easy-Setup screen appears.
3. Press the left or right arrow key to select Test and press Enter or position the pointer over the Test icon and click the left click button once.
4. Press Ctrl+A to enter advanced diagnostics.
5. If you are using PC test cards, select Tool to install them. Insert the cards when prompted. (For instructions on installing test cards, see Running the Diagnostics. For instructions on inserting the cards, see Removing PCMCIA Cards.)
6. Select the PCMCIA icon and press Enter to run the test on the PCMCIA slots. The green LED on the PCMCIA card should turn on when the test runs. (If the green LED does not turn on, see Reading the PC Test Card LED.) Test results will be displayed under the PCMCIA icon.
7. If no errors are detected, the OK message appears.
8. If an error is detected, the FRU code and error description message appear. Go to FRU Codes and replace the FRU.
9. To exit from the test screen, press Esc.

Installed devices are displayed as dark icons on the diagnostics screen. All other devices are displayed with gray icons.

If a device is installed but the icon appears gray rather than dark, the device is defective. Reseat the device connectors, and then restart diagnostics. If the symptom remains, replace the device or the system board. If needed, adjust the contrast control to clearly distinguish the shades of the icon.

If a device that is not installed appears in a dark shade, for example, if HDD-2 appears in a dark shade when a second hard disk drive is not installed, perform the following steps:

1. Replace the first device, such as HDD-1.
2. If the problem persists, replace the relevant system board.

The PCMCIA, System Board, Display, and infrared transceiver icons are always displayed in a dark shade, because the icons represent subsystems of the system board and not attached devices. The parallel port icon is dark except when the diskette drive is attached to the parallel port; in that case, the FDD icon is dark and the parallel port icon is gray. Icons for devices attached through the MultiPort II are dark when the devices are attached, and are gray when the devices are removed from the MultiPort II.

The HDD-1 icon represents the first drive in the system configuration. Similarly, the HDD-2 icon represents the second drive, attached to the docking station.

To verify the symptom of the problem, power-on the computer using each of the power sources available as follows:

1. Remove the battery.
2. Connect the AC adapter and check that power is supplied by pressing the power switch.
3. Disconnect the AC adapter and install the charged battery; then, check that power is supplied from the battery by pressing the power switch.

Note: The battery is charged only while the computer is powered-on (the computer can be in the suspend mode). The battery cannot be charged if the computer is powered-off.

If you suspect a power problem, see the appropriate power-supply check listed below:

• Checking the AC Adapter
• Checking the Battery Pack
• Checking the Standby Battery

The system status indicators show the current computer status in different colors (green and yellow).

Reading the Battery Status

If the computer is using the battery, the Battery Status field in the Configuration Utility indicates whether the battery is OK or low. If the computer is using external power, this field indicates whether the battery is fully charged or still charging. The battery fuel gauge provides a visual indication of the battery power level.

Check the AC adapter if the computer fails only when the AC adapter is used, or if the battery does not charge when the AC adapter is attached and the computer is on or in suspend mode.

• If the power problem occurs only when the MultiPort II is used, replace the MultiPort II.
• If the power-on indicator does not turn on, check the AC adapter for correct continuity and installation. If the connection is suspect, replace the AC adapter.
• If the operational charge does not work, go to Power Related Symptoms.

Note: Several types of AC adapters can be supplied with the ThinkPad 701C / 701CS. The procedure for checking them is the same.

1. Unplug the AC adapter cable from the computer and measure the output voltage at the plug of the AC adapter cable. See the following figure.

   

   Pin	Voltage (Vdc)
   1	+15.5 to +17.0
   2	Ground

2. If the voltage is not correct, replace the AC adapter.

   Note: In rare cases, the problem may be in the AC adapter even when the voltage is correct. If an AC adapter is available, try replacing the computer's AC adapter.

3. If the voltage is correct, replace the top system board. If this does not correct the problem, go to Undetermined Problems.

Note: An audible noise from the AC adapter does not always indicate a defective adapter.

Perform the following steps to check the battery:

1. Remove the battery.

   Note: To remove the battery, end external communications if you are not using an AC adapter. Power-off the computer, and then close the lid. Unlock the battery compartment door located on the bottom of the computer. Slide the battery out of the compartment.

2. Measure the voltage between battery terminals 1 (+) and 4 (-). See the following figure.

   

   Terminal	Voltage (Vdc) / Signal
   1	11.0 (nominal) (Range +10.0 to +16.0)
   2	VCC
   3	I/O
   4	Ground

   Note: The signal lines not used in these steps, terminals 2 and 3, are used for communication between the system and the battery.

3. If the voltage is less than +10.0 Vdc, the battery has been discharged or is defective. Recharge the battery.

   If the voltage is still less than +10.0 Vdc after the recharging, replace the battery.

Before performing the following steps, make sure that the standby battery is fully charged by leaving the computer plugged into ac power while on or in suspend mode for 24 hours. The computer can be used normally while the standby battery is charging. If any problem is not corrected after charging the standby battery, perform the following steps.

1. Power-off the computer and unplug the AC adapter from the computer.
2. Remove the battery.
3. Remove the top system board.
4. Replace the standby battery from the bottom of the top system board.
5. Reinstall the top system board.
6. Plug the computer into ac power, power-on the computer, and let the standby battery charge for 24 hours.
7. To verify standby battery operation, remove and reinstall the battery while the computer is in the suspend mode.

   Note: For this test to be valid, the battery should reinstalled within 1 minute.

   The resume operation should start.

8. If the resume operation does not work, replace the top system board.

Use either the TrackPoint III or the cursor movement keys to interact with the tests. When asked for an “OK” response, press Enter or select the OK button.

12. Choose Restart to leave Easy-Setup and restart your system.
13. Select OK or press Enter to confirm the restart.

Each time you power-on the computer, the power-on self-test (POST) is initiated. The POST takes up to 90 seconds to complete, depending on the options installed.

The POST checks the following items: system boards, memory, display, keyboard, diskette drive, hard disk drive, parallel port, and serial port.

To start the POST, power-on the computer. The following actions will happen:

1. If a critical error occurs during the POST, the system halts. The system might beep or display a message.

   If the POST cannot be completed successfully, an error code appears on the display, and you are prompted to press Esc or Enter. If you press Esc, the computer bypasses the error and attempts to complete the POST. If you press Enter, the computer displays the Configuration Utility window. You can then try to correct the error. (See Running the Diagnostics.)

2. The computer issues one short beep when the POST ends successfully.
3. The computer attempts to load the operating system as customized. If the computer does not find an operating system, it displays a graphic message requesting that you insert a bootable diskette in the diskette drive and press F1 to resume operation.

If the display problem occurs only when using an external display, use the following instructions to correct the problem.

Note: Before you replace a display, check the following list to see if it is connected correctly.

• 8506 and 8508 displays must be connected to an Image Adapter/A or an Image-I Adapter/A.
• 63XX and 85XX systems support either 63XX or 85XX displays.
• 85XX systems with an XGA-2 adapter support 95XX displays.
• 95XX systems support either 63XX, 85XX, or 95XX displays.
• ThinkPad models support either 85XX or 95XX displays.

If the screen is rolling, replace the display assembly. If that does not correct the problem, replace FRUs in the following order until the problem goes away:

1. Video card
2. Display adapter (any type)
3. System board
4. Bus adapter (if used)

If the screen is not rolling, run the display self-test as follows:

1. Power-off the computer and display.
2. Disconnect the display signal cable.
3. Power-on the display.
4. Set the contrast to its maximum position.
5. Set the brightness control to the center detent position.

Check for the following conditions:

• You should be able to vary the screen intensity by adjusting the contrast and brightness controls.
• The screen should be white or light gray, with a black margin (test margin) on the screen.

  Note: The location of the test margin varies with the type of display. The test margin might be on the top, bottom, or one or both sides.

If you do not see a test margin on the screen, replace the display. If there is a test margin on the screen, replace the system board.

Perform the following steps to format the hard disk:

All data and formatting on the disk will be destroyed and cannot be recovered. Have the user make a backup copy of all information on the hard disk that should be saved. Make sure that a bootable diskette is available. Make sure that the drive address to be formatted is correct.

11. When you restart the computer, a graphic message is displayed at the end of POST, requesting that you insert a bootable diskette into the diskette drive and press F1 to resume operation.

Numeric Error Codes

The Symptom-to-FRU Index contains tables that list causes of symptoms. The most likely cause is listed first. Use this index to help you decide which FRUs to have available when servicing a computer.

Perform the FRU replacement or actions in the sequence shown in the “FRU / Action” columns. If the replacement FRU did not solve the problem, put the original FRU back in the computer.

Before completely reassembling a computer that has been repaired, try to reboot the computer to check the repairs that have been completed. However, when you reboot without the keyboard attached, the computer will display error codes 8603, 8613, and 86XX.

Use displayed numeric error codes to determine the system problem. If numeric error codes are not available, use the other symptom tables that describe specific symptoms. If the symptom is not listed, go to Undetermined Problems.

Note: For IBM devices not supported by diagnostics codes of ThinkPad 701C / 701CS, see the manual for those devices.

Diagnostics errors are printed on the printer that is attached to the parallel port when the error is detected. The error is also logged in the system memory.

Use the following procedure to display the errors:

1. End the test, if it is running.
2. Press Ctrl+A to enter the advanced diagnostics.
3. Press Ctrl+E.
4. The error log appears.
5. To exit the screen, select Cancel or press Esc.

The error log is not saved when system power is turned off.

Note that LCD-related symptoms might be a result of software problems. Therefore, before working on hardware to correct video problems, make sure that the system has the latest versions of the video drivers installed. Systems that do not have the latest versions of video drivers might experience symptoms such as random extra pixels.

Before testing or replacing the MultiPort II, ensure that the customer installed the MultiPort II while the computer was powered-off or in Suspend mode. Make sure the problems occur when the MultiPort II has been installed correctly.

See Infrared Transceiver Checkout for information on the infrared transceiver and infrared transceiver checkout.

Before testing or replacing any peripheral device, go into the Configuration Utility and ensure that all of the configurations are correct. Also, check applications to ensure that devices are configured correctly.

Note: If you cannot find a symptom or error in this list and the problem remains, see Undetermined Problems.

Perform the following procedures to isolate the failing FRU if the diagnostics tests did not identify which adapter or device failed, or whether the installed devices are incorrect, a short circuit is suspected, or the system is inoperative.

Note: Do not replace a nondefective FRU.

Before performing these procedures, perform the following actions:

• Verify that all attached devices are supported by the computer.
• Verify that the power supply being used at the time of the failure is operating correctly. (See Power Systems Checkout.)

1. Power-off the computer.
2. Check the cables, wires, and connectors for short circuits and open circuits. Visually check them for damage. If any problems are found, replace the FRU.
3. Remove or disconnect all of the following devices:
   1. Non-IBM devices
   2. Devices attached to the expansion bus connector
   3. Printer, mouse, and other external devices
   4. Battery pack
   5. Hard disk drive
   6. Diskette drive or the device attached to the diskette drive connector
   7. SO-DIMM card
   8. PCMCIA cards

   Note: Remember that removing the hard disk drive, a SO-DIMM card, or any adapter or device will cause configuration errors. Error code 162 will occur.

4. Power-on the computer.
5. Determine whether the problem has changed.
6. If the problem does not occur again, reconnect the removed devices one at a time until you find the failing FRU.
7. If the problem remains, replace the following FRUs one at a time.

   Note: Do not replace a nondefective FRU.

   • Inverter Card.
   • LCD Assembly.
   • Top System Board.
   • Bottom System Board.

Numeric error codes show the errors detected in POST or system operation. Use the error codes displayed on the screen to diagnose failures. If more than one error code is displayed, begin the diagnosis with the first error code. The cause of the first error code can result in false error codes being displayed.

In the following error codes, X can be any number.

If an error is detected by the diagnostics tests, a four-digit FRU code is displayed, along with an error code. The FRU code indicates two suspected FRUs. Replace the FRU that is indicated by the two leftmost digits first, and then replace the FRU indicated by the two rightmost digits. No FRU is assigned to code 00. If only one FRU is suspected, the other FRU code is filled with zeros. See the referenced page before replacing the FRU.

Note: The device ID and error codes are used to indicate in detail the portion of the FRU that caused the error. If replacing a FRU does not correct a problem, see the device ID or error code from the previous failure. If they have changed, the new FRU might be defective or incorrectly installed.

If the problem remains after replacement of the FRUs, go to Undetermined Problems.

Intermittent system interruptions can be caused by a variety of reasons that have nothing to do with a hardware defect, such as electrostatic discharge or software errors. Consider replacing a FRU only when a recurring problem exists.

When analyzing the intermittent problem, perform the following steps:

1. Run the advanced diagnostics test in loop mode at least 10 times.
2. If no error is detected, do not replace any FRUs.
3. If any error is detected, replace the FRU shown by the FRU code. Rerun the test to verify that no more errors exist.

This section contains information about removals and replacements.

Follow the numerical sequence in Disassembling the ThinkPad 701C / 701CS and the three exploded views to remove or disconnect parts in the correct order. Reverse the numerical sequence to replace FRUs. Note exceptions and special instructions for replacement throughout the FRU removal procedure.

Safety Notice 2

Some standby batteries contain a small amount of nickel and cadmium. Do not disassemble it, recharge it, throw it into fire or water, or short-circuit it. Dispose of the battery as required by local ordinances or regulations. Use only the battery in the appropriate parts listing. Use of an incorrect battery can result in ignition or explosion of the battery.

Certaines batteries de secours contiennent du nickel et du cadmium. Ne les démontez pas, ne les rechargez pas, ne les exposez ni au feu ni à l'eau. Ne les mettez pas en court-circuit. Pour les mettre au rebut, conformez-vous à la réglementation en vigueur. Lorsque vous remplacez la pile de sauvegarde ou celle de l'horloge temps réel, veillez à n'utiliser que les modèles cités dans la liste de pièces détachées adéquate. Une batterie ou une pile inappropriée risque de prendre feu ou d'exploser.

Die Bereitschaftsbatterie, die sich unter dem Diskettenlaufwerk befindet, kann geringe Mengen Nickel und Cadmium enthalten. Sie darf nur durch die Verkaufsstelle oder den IBM Kundendienst ausgetauscht werden. Sie darf nicht zerlegt, wiederaufgeladen, kurzgeschlossen, oder Feuer oder Wasser ausgesetzt werden. Die Batterie kann schwere Verbrennungen oder Verätzungen verursachen. Bei der Entsorgung die örtlichen Bestimmungen für Sondermüll beachten. Beim Ersetzen der Bereitschafts- oder Systembatterie nur Batterien des Typs verwenden, der in der Ersatzteilliste aufgeführt ist. Der Einsatz falscher Batterien kann zu Entzündung oder Explosion führen.

Alcune batterie di riserva contengono una piccola quantità di nichel e cadmio. Non smontarle, ricaricarle, gettarle nel fuoco o nell'acqua né cortocircuitarle. Smaltirle secondo la normativa in vigore (DPR 915/82, successive disposizioni e disposizioni locali). Quando si sostituisce la batteria dell'RTC (real time clock) o la batteria di supporto, utilizzare soltanto i tipi inseriti nell'appropriato Catalogo parti. L'impiego di una batteria non adatta potrebbe determinare l'incendio o l'esplosione della batteria stessa.

Algunas baterías de reserva contienen una pequeña cantidad de níquel y cadmio. No las desmonte, ni recargue, ni las eche al fuego o al agua ni las cortocircuite. Deséchelas tal como dispone la normativa local. Utilice sólo baterías que se encuentren en la lista de piezas. La utilización de una batería no apropiada puede provocar la ignición o explosión de la misma.

Safety Notice 7

Though main batteries have low voltage, a shorted or grounded battery can produce enough current to burn combustible materials or personnel.

Bien que le voltage des batteries principales soit peu élevé, le court-circuit ou la mise à la masse d'une batterie peut produire suffisamment de courant pour brûler des matériaux combustibles ou causer des brûlures corporelles graves.

Obwohl Hauptbatterien eine niedrige Spannung haben, können sie doch bei Kurzschluß oder Erdung genug Strom abgeben, um brennbare Materialien zu entzünden oder Verletzungen bei Personen hervorzurufen.

Sebbene le batterie di alimentazione siano a basso voltaggio, una batteria in corto circuito o a massa può fornire corrente sufficiente da bruciare materiali combustibili o provocare ustioni ai tecnici di manutenzione.

Aunque las baterías principales tienen un voltaje bajo, una batería cortocircuitada o con contacto a tierra puede producir la corriente suficiente como para quemar material combustible o provocar quemaduras en el personal.
