This manual provides instructions for removing and replacing field-replaceable components, assemblies, and subassemblies in your Dell Latitude portable computer. Unless otherwise noted, each procedure in this manual assumes that a part can be replaced by performing the removal procedure in reverse order. It is recommended that you use a book or something similar to support the display assembly when it is open nearly 180 degrees. The angle of the display assembly with respect to the bottom case should never be allowed to exceed 180 degrees. Also, when performing the procedures in this manual, the locations or directions relative to the computer are as shown in Figure 1 unless otherwise specified.

If you cannot shut down the computer using the computer's operating system, press and hold the power button for 4 seconds. 3. If the computer is docked in a C/Dock Family Expansion Station or C/Port Family Advanced Port Replicator (APR), undock the computer. 4. Disconnect the computer and any attached peripherals from their electrical outlets to reduce the potential for personal injury or shock. Also disconnect any telephone or telecommunications lines from the computer. 5. Disconnect all other external cables from the computer. 6. Remove any installed PC Cards or plastic blanks from the PC Card slot. 7 . Remove any installed devices in the modular device bay.

9. Remove the secondary battery assembly (if present) from the modular bay. 10. Ground yourself by touching the unpainted metal surface of the I/O panel on the back of the computer. While you work, periodically touch the I/O panel to dissipate any static electricity that might harm components.
The illustrations in the following removal procedures provide the correct screw length as part of the screw's label. A graphic for that length screw is also included in the illustration. Examples are shown in Figure 3. Match the actual screw to the graphic in the illustration to check for correct length.

1. If you only have one memory module, install it in the DIMM A socket. NOTES: 192-MB memory modules are designed for either the socket labeled DIMM A or the socket labeled DIMM B; they are not interchangeable. Be sure that the memory module is inserted with the double-stacked memory chips facing you. A 192-MB memory module inserted with the double-stacked memory chips facing down does not fit properly in the socket. Memory modules are keyed, or designed to fit into their sockets, in only one direction. The slots on the system board are notched so that the memory module can be firmly seated only one way.

The connectors are identical on the Torisan and Sharp LCD panels, but they are mounted reverse with respect to each other. This means that pin 1 on the Torisan panel connector is at the opposite end when compared to pin 1 on the Sharp panel connector. The LCD flex cable can connect to either panel by making one fold to the cable. The words Torisan and Sharp are printed on the cable (see Figure 17).
