Removing the Wireless LAN Module
1. Turn off the computer, remove the battery (page 2 - 5) and hard disk (page 2 - 11).
2. If there is a module currently installed which needs to be upgraded/replaced then remove it.
3. Disconnect the antenna cable
from the wireless LAN module and gently pull the two release latches ( & )
in the direction of the arrow.
4. The wireless LAN module (Figure 3b) will pop-up, and you can remove it.
5. Insert a new module holding it at about a 30° angle and fit the connectors firmly into the slot.
6. The module will only fit one way as defined by its pin alignment. Make sure the module is seated as far into the slot
as it will go. DO NOT FORCE IT; it should fit without much pressure.
7. Press the module down towards the mainboard until the slot levers click into place to secure the module.
8. Replace the hard disk, hard disk cover and the 9 screws (page 2 - 6).
