As the device has to be shut down in order to install/deinstall system hardware components, it is a good idea to print out the relevant sections of this chapter.

It may be necessary to update the BIOS when carrying out a system expansion or hardware upgrade. Additional information is contained in the "BIOS Setup" manual or possibly in the technical manual for the mainboard.

When installing components that become very hot, make sure that the maximum permissible temperature is not exceeded.

The devices are very similar to each other. Therefore, only the Celsius V is shown in the following illustrations. In case of differences, this will be pointed out at the appropriate point.

The device must be switched off when installing/removing the system expansions and may not be in the energy-saving mode.

Remove the power plug before opening the device.

This chapter describes all the activities required to modify your device hardware (e.g. installing boards or drives).

Read the supplied documentation before installing new drives and/or boards.

Refer to the technical manual for the mainboard before making any extensions to the mainboard.

Information about boards

Take care with the locking mechanisms (catches and centring pins) when you are replacing boards or components on boards.

To prevent damage to the board or the components and conductors on it, please take care when you insert or remove boards. Make sure expansion boards are inserted straight.

Never use sharp objects (screwdrivers) for leverage.

Boards with electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) are identifiable by the label shown.

When you handle boards fitted with ESDs, you must, under all circumstances, observe the following points:

You must always discharge static build up (e.g. by touching a grounded object) before working.

The equipment and tools you use must be free of static charges.

Always hold boards with ESDs by their edges.

Never touch pins or conductors on boards fitted with ESDs.
