IBM ThinkPad 340 Series Hardware Maintenance Manual page 176

If you follow all of the steps in this procedure, you
completely disassemble the ThinkPad 701C/701CS.
However, for some replacement operations, you may not
need to completely disassemble the ThinkPad
701C/701CS. In those situations, the relative sequence of
steps in this procedure is important. Some FRUs must be
removed to reach the failing FRU, or to make it easier to
work with another FRU.
