To remove the air filter (see Figure 11 on page 12):
1. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect
the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis.
2. Unwrap any cables on the standard cable manager and remove the cables from the
tray. Arrange the cables so that they do not block the front of the cable manager and
tray, and secure them with temporary fasteners so that they are not supporting their
own weight as they hang from the connector.
NOTE: Removing the cables from the extended cable manager is not
necessary to access the air filter.
CAUTION: Do not let fiber-optic cable hang free from the connector. Do
not allow fastened loops of cable to dangle, which stresses the cable at
the fastening point.
3. Simultaneously pull the two releases labeled PULL on the standard cable manager.
Lift it up and outward to lock it in place to access the air filter.
4. Slide the air filter tray out of the chassis.
5. Lift the air filter out of the air filter tray.
