WARNING
Do not open the power supply. Risk of electric shock. Refer servicing
of the power supply to qualified service personnel.
CAUTION
Before removing the access cover for any reason, observe these
cautionary guidelines.
• Turn off all peripheral devices.
• Turn off the system by pressing the power button on the front of the chassis. Then
unplug the AC power cord from the chassis or wall outlet.
• Label and disconnect all peripheral cables connected to the I/O connectors or
ports on the back of the chassis.
• Provide some electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection by wearing an anti-static
wrist strap attached to chassis ground—any unpainted metal surface—when
handling components.
CAUTION
The power button on the front panel does not disconnect the AC power.
To remove power from the system, you must unplug the AC power cord
from the AC supply or from the computer chassis.
CAUTION
ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and other parts. Perform all
procedures in this chapter only at an ESD workstation. If one is not
available, provide some ESD protection by wearing an anti-static wrist
strap attached to chassis ground
 any unpainted metal surface  on
your system when handling parts.
Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely sensitive to
ESD. Hold boards only by their edges. Do not touch the connector
contacts. After removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the
system, place the board component side up on a grounded, static free

surface. If you place the board on a conductive surface, the battery
leads may short out. If they do, this will result in a loss of CMOS data
and will drain the battery. Use a conductive foam pad if available but
not the board wrapper. Do not slide the board over any surface. For
proper cooling and airflow, always install the chassis side cover before
turning on the system. Operating it without the cover in place can
damage system parts.
