(b) Every procedure should be followed as the guide stipulates

(c) Work in an area that will not allow for the movement of static electricity, as this may ruin the machine

(d) To avoid misplacing screws and washers, place them in some container

(e) Ensure that you acquaint yourself with the details in the videos and those in the eBook before you carry out a repair process.

(f) Unless the front and the back have been released, you should not pull the casing apart. Never try to lever between any two components of the machine.
