Customer self repair HP products are designed with many Customer Self Repair (CSR) parts to minimize repair time and allow for greater flexibility in performing defective parts replacement. If during the diagnosis period HP (or HP service providers or service partners) identifies that the repair can be accomplished by the use of a CSR part, HP will ship that part directly to you for replacement. There are two categories of CSR parts: • Mandatory—Parts for which customer self repair is mandatory.
Obligatoire - Pièces pour lesquelles la réparation par le client est obligatoire. Si vous demandez à HP de remplacer ces pièces, les coûts de déplacement et main d'œuvre du service vous seront facturés. Facultatif - Pièces pour lesquelles la réparation par le client est facultative. Ces pièces sont également conçues pour permettre au client d'effectuer lui-même la réparation.
In base alla disponibilità e alla località geografica, le parti CSR vengono spedite con consegna entro il giorno lavorativo seguente. La consegna nel giorno stesso o entro quattro ore è offerta con un supplemento di costo solo in alcune zone. In caso di necessità si può richiedere l'assistenza telefonica di un addetto del centro di supporto tecnico HP. Nel materiale fornito con una parte di ricambio CSR, HP specifica se il cliente deve restituire dei componenti.
defekte Teil nicht zurückschicken, kann HP Ihnen das Ersatzteil in Rechnung stellen. Im Falle von Customer Self Repair kommt HP für alle Kosten für die Lieferung und Rücksendung auf und bestimmt den Kurier-/Frachtdienst. Weitere Informationen über das HP Customer Self Repair Programm erhalten Sie von Ihrem Servicepartner vor Ort. Informationen über das CSR-Programm in Nordamerika finden Sie auf der HP Website unter (http://www.hp.com/go/selfrepair).
enviara el componente defectuoso requerido, HP podrá cobrarle por el de sustitución. En el caso de todas sustituciones que lleve a cabo el cliente, HP se hará cargo de todos los gastos de envío y devolución de componentes y escogerá la empresa de transporte que se utilice para dicho servicio. Para obtener más información acerca del programa de Reparaciones del propio cliente de HP, póngase en contacto con su proveedor de servicios local.
Neem contact op met een Service Partner voor meer informatie over het Customer Self Repair programma van HP. Informatie over Service Partners vindt u op de HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/selfrepair). Garantieservice "Parts Only" Het is mogelijk dat de HP garantie alleen de garantieservice "Parts Only" omvat. Volgens de bepalingen van de Parts Only garantieservice zal HP kosteloos vervangende onderdelen ter beschikking stellen.
No caso desse serviço, a substituição de peças CSR é obrigatória. Se desejar que a HP substitua essas peças, serão cobradas as despesas de transporte e mão-de-obra do serviço.

This symbol on an RJ-45 receptacle indicates a network interface connection. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not plug telephone or telecommunications connectors into this receptacle. This symbol indicates the presence of a hot surface or hot component. If this surface is contacted, the potential for injury exists. WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from a hot component, allow the surface to cool before touching.
Preparation procedures To access some components and perform certain service procedures, perform one or more of the following procedures: • Unlock the tower bezel (on page 26). • Remove the tower bezel (on page 26). • Power down the server (on page 27). Before removing the server from a rack or a non-hot-plug component from the server, power down the server. Unlock the tower bezel The tower bezel must be unlocked and opened to access the drive cage and media bays.
3. Pull the bezel away from the front chassis. Power down the server Before powering down the server for any upgrade or maintenance procedures, perform a backup of critical server data and programs.
