approved procedures, personal injury or damage to equipment can result.

Case Components
Ordinarily you will not need to replace any of the external case components unless they are
broken or cosmetically damaged. All case components are designed for durability, but the
item that may require replacement first is the door and hinge assembly.
To replace the hinge or door, you must first remove the top cover. To replace the face panel,
you must remove the top cover and the door.
To replace the top cover:
1. Remove the top cover. See Chapter 1, “Accessing the System,” for details.
2. Install the new cover.
To replace the door assembly:
1. Remove the top cover. See Chapter 1, “Accessing the System,” for details.
2. Lift the door and hold it at a 90-degree angle from the face panel.
3. Insert a small flat-blade screwdriver between the door and hinge, near one of the square
holes on the underside of the door.
