Procedure
For location of components listed below, reference your system user guide.
T
HE SYSTEM CONTAINS COMPONENTS THAT CAN BE SEVERELY DAMAGED BY ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD). TO MINIMIZE RISK
TO COMPONENTS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS:
•BEFORE CHANGING COMPONENTS IN YOUR SYSTEM, IT IS A GOOD PRACTICE TO FIRST TOUCH A GROUNDED METAL OBJECT TO
DISCHARGE STATIC ELECTRICITY BUILT UP IN YOUR BODY.
•B
E SURE TO POWER DOWN YOUR SYSTEM BEFORE ADDING OR REMOVING SYSTEM COMPONENTS. EVEN IF THE SYSTEM IS IN
HIBERNATE STATES, DATA COULD BE LOST OR MEMORY COULD BE DAMAGED IF POWER IS STILL AVAILABLE TO THE SYSTEM.
•WHEN INSTALLING OR REMOVING A MODULE, HOLD IT BY THE EDGE SO AS NOT TO TOUCH ANY CONTACTS OR CHIPS. BE
CAREFUL NOT TO TOUCH ANY INTERNAL TERMINALS OR COMPONENTS; THE OIL FROM YOUR FINGERS COULD CAUSE A SHORT
TO THE COMPONENTS.
1. Turn off the power to your tablet PC and unplug the power adapter.
2. Turn the unit bottom side up and remove the battery.
3. Using a Phillips #0 screwdriver, remove the ten
screws that are securing the WWAN cover. (See
Fig. 1). Lift and remove the cover. (See Fig. 2).
4. Locate the connector to which the WWAN mod-
ule will be attached (Fig. 3).
NOTE: The module should be oriented with the top
up. The top can be recognized by a black triangle
and a white triangle, labelled “MAIN” and “AUX”,
respectively. The bottom of the module has a label
containing the following:
FCC ID: N7MC8355
IC: 2417C-MC8355
5. Holding the module with the label that has
two triangles labelled “MAIN” and “AUX” side
up, align the connector edge of the module
with the mini card connector slot (Fig. 3) in the
compartment (the module and connector are
both keyed so that there is only one way to
install it).
6. Insert the module at a 45° angle. Press the
module edge down so that it lies flat. The hole
in the module closest to the edge of the system
should be aligned over the hole in the attach-
ment standoff.
7. Insert the screw that was contained in the
Wireless WAN Upgrade Kit through the module
and secure it to the module attachment stand-
off (See Fig. 4).

P
ERSONS WITH LARGER HANDS MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY CONNECTING THE CABLES TO THE POSTS MANUALLY. IF NECESSARY,
USE TWEEZERS, BUT TAKE CARE NOT TO CONTACT OTHER COMPONENTS WITHIN THE COMPARTMENT, AS FRAGILE COMPO-
NENTS COULD BE DAMAGED BY TWEEZERS.
