Use the following precautions when handling cables to prevent damage to the cable or computer: q Apply only the required tension to seat or unseat the cables during insertion and removal from the connector. q Handle cables by the connector whenever possible. q 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 these computers, ensure that cables are placed in their proper location during the reassembly process.
