slots, ensuring that the battery carrier is aligned and fully seated in the slots.

Figure 3-21).

Remote Access Controller Card (RAC)
The optional Remote Access Controller card provides a set of advanced
features for managing the system remotely.
Removing the RAC Card
CAUTION:
Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You
should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your
product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and
support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered
by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the
product.
1 Turn off the system and attached peripherals, and disconnect the system
from the electrical outlet and from the peripherals.
2 Remove the system cover (see "Removing the System Cover" on page 66).
3 Open the expansion card cover (see Figure 3-7).
NOTE:
You can remove the expansion card cover, if desired, and set it aside.
4 Open the expansion card latch adjacent to the slot (see Figure 3-20).
NOTICE:
When detaching the RAC cables from the system board, squeeze the
metal ends of the cable connectors and gently work the connector out of the
socket. Do not pull on the cable to unseat the connector. Doing so can damage the
cable.
5 Disconnect the ribbon cable to the RAC card.
