Removing the Main Cover

Caution –

Before handling components, attach an electrostatic-discharge (ESD)

wrist strap to the grounding post that is built into the rear of the chassis (see

FIGURE 1-2

for the location). The system’s printed circuit boards and hard disk drives

contain components that are extremely sensitive to static electricity.

1. Press down on the cover release button and, using the indent for leverage, slide

the main cover toward the rear of the chassis approximately 0.5 inch (12 mm). See

FIGURE 3-2

.

2. Grasp the cover by its rear edge and lift it straight up from the chassis.

Note –

When you remove any cover, the intrusion switch that is on the front I/O

board automatically powers down the system to standby power mode.
