Closing the case

Closing the case

Replace the chassis cover as soon as you finish installing or removing 
components so that dust and dirt (which could damage the computer) do not 
collect inside the computer.

 To replace the front bezel:

1

Lift the front of the chassis and set the lower chassis tabs into the locking 
holes on the bezel.

2

Press the bezel into the chassis until the three upper tabs snap into their 
locking holes. Two of the three upper tabs latch underneath the locking 
holes. One tab latches over the top of the chassis.

 To replace the chassis cover:

1

Place the cover on the computer, making sure the tabs on the front end 
are inserted underneath the bezel and the rear of the cover is in a raised 
position.

2

Lower the rear of the cover onto the computer chassis until the side 
latches snap into place.

3

Reinstall the thumbscrew or lock that was removed to open the case.
