Installing The Sleeve

1. Remove the I/O connector covers from the I/O connectors on the sleeve and save for future use.
2. Remove the cover from the sleeve handle.
NOTE: To ensure optimal thermal performance, do not replace the cover on the sleeve handle after the sleeve is
installed in the enclosure.
3. If installed, remove the blade or blade blank from the top slot (Blade a) of the sleeve.
CAUTION: If you are installing a sleeve in bays 3 or 4, rotate the LCD module to the horizontal storage position to
prevent accidental damage to the LCD screen.
4. Align the guide rail on the upper edge of the sleeve so that the rail fits between the plastic guides on the enclosure.
5. Slide the sleeve into the enclosure.
6. Lift the sleeve handle up to secure the sleeve in the enclosure.
