Installing System Components 67
Opening the System
To upgrade or troubleshoot the system, remove the system cover to gain
access to internal components.
1
Unless you are installing a hot-plug component such as a cooling fan or
power supply, turn off the system and attached peripherals, and disconnect
the system from the electrical outlet and peripherals.
2
To remove the system cover, turn the latch release lock counter-clockwise
to the unlocked position. See Figure 3-3.
3
Lift up on the latch on top of the system. See Figure 3-3.
4
Grasp the cover on both sides and carefully lift the cover away from the
system.
Closing the System
1
Lift up the latch on the cover.
2
Place the cover on top of the system and offset the cover slightly back so
that it clears the chassis J hooks and lays flush on the system chassis. See
Figure 3-3.

Push down the latch to lever the cover into the closed position.
4
Rotate the latch release lock in a clockwise direction to secure the cover.
