Installation Sequence
It is very important that you follow this sequence of steps to ensure
the proper installation of any optional equipment.
For more information about Setup Utility/Computer Setup, refer to
the appropriate Setup Utility chapter in this guide.
1. If the computer is already on, turn it off and disconnect the power
cord from the wall outlet.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from electrical shock
and/or hot surfaces, be sure to disconnect the power cord from the wall
outlet, and allow the internal system components to cool before touching.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, fire, or damage to the
equipment, do not plug telecommunications or telephone connectors into the
network interface controller (NIC) receptacles.
CAUTION: Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the
computer or optional equipment. Before beginning these procedures, ensure
that you are discharged of static electricity by briefly touching a grounded
metal object. See Appendix C, “Electrostatic Discharge,” for more
information.
2. Open the computer by removing its access panels. See the
procedures for removing the computer access panels later in this
chapter.
