User guide GATEWAY 450ROG
Detailed instructions for use are in the User's Guide. Replacing the Gateway 450ROG Keyboard
Replacing the Gateway 450ROG Keyboard
This package includes a replacement keyboard for your Gateway 450ROG notebook and these printed instructions.
Tools you need
You need a small Phillips and a small flat-blade screwdriver to replace the keyboard.
Preventing static electricity discharge
The components inside your notebook are extremely sensitive to static electricity, also known as electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Warning ESD can permanently damage electrostatic discharge-sensitive components in your notebook. Prevent ESD damage by following ESD guidelines every time you replace the keyboard.
Warning
To avoid exposure to dangerous electrical voltages and moving parts, turn off your notebook and unplug the power cord and modem and network cables before opening the case.

Before replacing the keyboard, follow these guidelines:
Turn off your notebook. Wear a grounding wrist strap (available at most electronics stores) and attach it to a bare metal part of your workbench or other grounded connection.
Warning To prevent risk of electric shock, do not insert any object into the vent holes of the notebook.
Touch a bare metal surface on your workbench or other grounded object. Unplug the power cord and the modem and network cables. Remove the main and optional secondary batteries. For more information, see "Changing batteries" in your user guide. Disconnect all peripheral devices and remove any PC Cards.
Before working with notebook components, follow these guidelines:
Avoid static-causing surfaces such as carpeted floors, plastic, and packing foam. Remove components from their antistatic bags only when you are ready to use them. Do not lay components on the outside of antistatic bags because only the inside of the bags provide electrostatic protection. Always hold components by their edges. Avoid touching the edge connectors. Never slide components over any surface.
