5. Connect the power cord to the power cord connector on the new hot-swap redundant power supply.

Then, check the status LED near the power cord connector. When the LED is lit in green, it indicates
that the hot-swap redundant power supply is working correctly. When the LED is lit in amber, it indicates
that the hot-swap redundant power supply is likely to fail or has failed. Reinstall the new hot-swap
redundant power supply to see if the problem can be solved. If the new hot-swap redundant power
supply still does not work correctly, contact your place of purchase or a service representative for help.

6. If you are instructed to return the old hot-swap redundant power supply, follow all packaging instructions

and use any packaging materials that are supplied to you for shipping.
