Removing the Front Panel
Remove the front panel before installing a device in one of
the 5 1/4-inch accessible device slots.
If you are installing an accessible 5 1/4-inch device, you
also need to remove the blank panel that covers the slot on
the front panel. You might also need to remove the slot
panel on the front of the chassis.
Remove the front panel and blank panel as follows:
1.
Remove the system unit cover (see “Removing the
Desktop Cover” or “Removing the Minitower Cover”).
2.
Remove the front panel by pulling the panel away from
the front of the unit with even pressure at both ends of
the panel.
Four tabs on the back of the front panel secure it to the
system (see the following figures).
