Use this manual along with the advanced diagnostic tests to troubleshoot problems effectively. Before servicing a ThinkPad Notebook product, be sure to read all the information under Chapter 1 “Safety information” on page 1 and Chapter 2 “Important service information” on page 25.
Chapter 1. Safety information This chapter presents following safety information that you need to be familiar with before you service a ThinkPad Notebook. • “General safety” on page 1 • “Electrical safety” on page 2 • “Safety inspection guide” on page 3 •...
– Pumps – Blowers and fans – Motor generators – Similar units to listed above This practice ensures correct grounding of the units. • If an electrical accident occurs: ThinkPad SL410, L410, L412, SL510, L510, and L512 Hardware Maintenance Manual...
This guide addresses only those items. You should use good judgment to identify potential safety hazards due to attachment of non-ThinkPad features or options not covered by this inspection guide. If any unsafe conditions are present, you must determine how serious the apparent hazard could be and whether you can continue without first correcting the problem.
Verify this by shaking the computer and listening for rattling sounds. Metallic parts or metal flakes can cause electrical shorts. DANGER ThinkPad SL410, L410, L412, SL510, L510, and L512 Hardware Maintenance Manual...

Some standby batteries contain a small amount of nickel and cadmium. Do not disassemble a standby battery, recharge it, throw it into fire or water, or short-circuit it. Dispose of the battery as required by local ordinances or regulations. Use only the battery in the appropriate parts listing. Use of an incorrect battery can result in ignition or explosion of the battery.
