Reattaching the Front Door and Hinge Arms

To prevent damage to your computer, the front-panel door is designed to "break away" if it is
lifted up too far. If the front-panel door is open and it is pushed inward too hard, the hinge
arms may also break away (the hinge arms are loose when they are detached).
