Remove Doors and Panels and Disconnect Cables

Insert a flat-blade screwdriver with a wide blade (1/4-inch recommended)
into the slot, and twist the screwdriver. The retainer will snap open easily
so that the cable can be removed.

the carrier to be removed.
4. Remove the rear doors from the cabinet.

replaced, label each component with its slot number.
2. Disconnect the power cords from the power units in the “D” carrier.

packs in the static-proof packaging.
