Removing and Installing Parts
6 If you are removing the card permanently, install a filler bracket in the
empty card-slot opening.

Installing filler brackets over empty card-slot openings is necessary to
maintain FCC certification of the computer. The brackets also keep dust and
dirt out of your computer.
7 Fix the card retention bracket by pressing it down.

To connect a network cable, first plug the cable into the network device
and then plug it into the computer.

• The tops of all cards and filler brackets are flush with the alignment bar.
