Removing the side panels
The system housing has one front panel and two removable side 
panels. Always observe the following ESD (electrostatic discharge) 
precautions before installing any system component:
1
Do not remove any system component from its packaging unless 
you are ready to install it.
2
Wear a wrist grounding strap before handling electronic 
components. Wrist grounding straps are available at most 
electronic component stores.
Danger! DO NOT attempt the procedures in the following sections 
unless you are confident of your capability to perform them. 
Otherwise, ask a service technician for assistance.
A microswitch is allocated on the right side of the front chassis. It helps 
indicate whether the panel is removed or intact. Also, a security lock 
secures the front panel to protect against unauthorized access. 
To remove the side panels: 
1
Turn off the power to the system unit and unplug all cables. 
2
Place the system unit on a flat, steady surface.

Remove the one front screw with a Phillips screwdriver to remove 
one side panel. Keep them in a safe place for later use.
