Disassembly
This section contains step-by-step disassembly procedures for the system. Reassembly is the
reverse of disassembly. Each procedure is supported by a simplified disassembly illustration to
facilitate removal. The Illustrated Parts Breakdown and parts lists for the system unit are shown
in Chapter 5.
For complete disassembly of the system, follow the disassembly instructions that follow.
Note
The following instructions cover two slightly different disassembly procedures. Some
earlier units did not have a user-removable hard drive. Follow the instructions carefully to
properly disassemble the systems.
When disassembling the system unit, follow these general rules.
„
Turn off the system and disconnect all power and all options, including the AC adapter
(if connected) and battery pack (see the procedures that follow).
„
Do not disassemble the system into parts that are smaller than those specified in the
procedure.
„
Label all removed connectors. Note where the connector goes and in what position it
was installed.
Battery
Replace the battery pack installed in your NEC Versa FXi system as follows.
Note
Use the batteries in the NEC Versa computer for which they are designed. Installing
another manufacturer’s battery, or using a combination of very old and new batteries can
deteriorate battery and equipment performance.
