Caution
Important for disassembly! When disassembling the monitor, make sure
that the battery leads are disconnected. Otherwise, it is likely that circuit
damage will occur.
The monitor can be disassembled down to all major component parts,
including:
• PCBs
• battery
• cables
• function buttons
• chassis enclosures
Remember to store all screws, nuts, washers and other parts in a safe place for
later refitting.
The step-by-step procedures that are used to access replaceable parts of the
monitor are illustrated in the Disassembly sections which follow. These describe
and photographically illustrate procedures for disassembling the monitor to
enable removal and replacement of suspected defective assemblies and
components.
The monitor consists of two main assemblies:
• The front case assembly
• The rear case assembly
The main PCB assembly is separable from the front case assembly.
