Note:
The levers are designed to stay in the position shown when the module is inserted into
the chassis. The levers are pulled upwards to extract the module.
If you have to remove a module, loosen the two screws that secure the module to the
chassis and rotate the extract levers up to eject the module from the chassis. Remove the
module, and then either install another module or replace the module bay cover.
Important:
You must have either a module or a module bay cover in each bay to ensure proper
ventilation. Leaving a module bay unpopulated or uncovered impairs the ability of the
fans to cool the chassis.
