In all cases, avoid bending, twisting, or tearing the cables, and ensure that the cables are routed in such a way that they cannot be caught or snagged by parts being removed or replaced. Handle flex cables with extreme care; they can tear easily. CAUTION: When servicing the Compaq Expansion Base, ensure that cables are placed in their proper location during the reassembly process. Improper cable placement can damage the Compaq Expansion Base. Plastic Parts Plastic parts can be damaged by the use of excessive force during disassembly and reassembly. When handling the plastic parts, use care. Use a bezel removal tool to separate plastic components. Apply pressure only at the points designated in the maintenance instructions.

When servicing the Compaq Expansion Base, ensure that cables are placed in
their proper location during the reassembly process. Improper cable placement can
damage the Compaq Expansion Base.
