The computer uses a zero insertion force (ZIF)
connector for the keyboard cable to the system board. To remove a cable from a ZIF
connector, lift both corners of the ZIF connector and slide simultaneously with constant
light force.

CAUTION: |
A ZIF connector and its attached cable can be
easily damaged. Handle only the connector slide when removing or replacing a cable. Never
pull or twist on the cable while it is connected. |

CAUTION: |
When
servicing this computer, ensure that cables are placed in their proper location during the
reassembly process. Improper cable placement can damage the computer. |
