The chassis features a removable top cover, which allows access to the inside of the chassis.
Removing the Top Cover
1. Press the two release buttons and slide the cover toward the rear.
2. Lift the top cover up.
Check that all ventilation openings on the top cover and the top of the chassis are clear and
unobstructed.
Caution
: Except for short periods of time, do not operate the server without the cover in place.
The chassis cover must be in place to allow for proper airflow and to prevent overheating.
