Disconnecting cables and removing the
side cover
Attention
The presence of 5 V ac standby power might result in
damage to the hardware unless you disconnect the
power cord from the electrical outlet before you open
the server.
1. Remove any media (diskettes or CDs) from the
drives; then, power-off all attached devices and the
server.
Caution
The Power Control button on the front of the
server does not turn off the electrical current
supplied to the server. The server also might
have more than one power cord. To remove all
electrical current from the server, ensure that all
power cords are disconnected from the power
source.
2. Touch the rear of the bare metal frame to dissipate
any static electricity from your body.
3. Before disconnecting cables, be sure to note where
they attach, so that you can correctly reattach them
later.
Note
If you are in the United Kingdom, you must
perform step 5 before step 4.
4. Unplug all power cords (cables) from electrical
outlets.
5. If you have a modem or fax machine attached to the
server, disconnect the telephone line from the wall
outlet and the server.
6. Note the location of the remaining cables and cords.
