  • CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the product.
  • CAUTION: Ensure that the cables are correctly installed and retained by the cable retention bracket before installing the cooling-fan assembly. Incorrectly installed cables may get damaged.
