Removing the front-panel assembly
To remove the front-panel assembly, complete the following steps:
1. Read the safety information that begins on page vii and “Installation guidelines”
on page 47.
2. Turn off the server and all attached devices; then, disconnect all power cords
and external cables.
3. Unlock and remove the side cover (see “Removing the side cover” on page
52).
4. Remove the lower bezel (see “Removing the lower bezel” on page 54).
5. Remove the upper bezel (see “Removing the upper bezel” on page 56).
6. Slide the drives in bay 1 and bay 2 forward slightly (see “Removing a CD or
DVD drive” on page 62 for more information). It is not necessary to remove
these drives.
7. If the server has hot-swap power supplies, remove the power supplies and the
power-supply cage (see “Removing the hot-swap power supply cage” on page
94).
8. Disconnect the front-panel assembly cable from the system board, and note
the routing of the cable (see “System-board internal connectors” on page 9 for
the location of the front-panel connector).
9. Press up on the release tab of the front-panel assembly and pull the assembly
toward the rear of the server; then, remove the front-panel assembly from the
chassis.
10. If you are instructed to return the front-panel assembly, follow all packaging
instructions, and use any packaging materials for shipping that are supplied to
you.
