Compaq ProLiant 5500 and 5500R Maintenance and Service Guide
For use with Pentium II and Pentium III Xeon processor-based servers only
Top Access Panel
The top access panel must be removed to access the I/O board. The access panel can be
removed while the server is turned on without causing system shutdown, but auxiliary power
(+5V) will remain in the exposed areas.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the internal system
components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of server shutdown and subsequent data loss or damage to the
equipment, use extreme care when running the server with the covers or access panels
removed. Access panels are an integral part of the cooling system and removing them while
the system is running may cause component stress or overheating.
To remove the top access panel:
1. Perform the preparation procedures. See "Preparation Procedures" earlier in this chapter.
2. Open the front bezel door (tower model only).
3. Use a Torx T-15 screwdriver to loosen the thumbscrew securing the top access panel to
the front of the chassis.
4. Slide the top access panel back, then lift it from the chassis.
