Installing the Rack Front Panel

1 Position the rack front panel on the front of the system chassis, using care to install the

five light pipes in their holes in the front panel.

NOTE: In the next step, start all 14 T-10 Torx screws in their holes before tightening any

of the screws to ensure proper alignment.

Secure the rack front panel to the chassis with the 14 T-10 Torx screws that you

removed in step 6 of the last procedure, “Removing the Bezel, Drives, Covers, and

Front Panel” (see Figure 1-9).

3 Reinstall the power and cooling modules (if they were removed).

NOTE: Do not install the hard drives until the next procedure, “Installing the System in

the Rack,” is completed.
