between the system and an AC outlet. Before performing
any procedures that require the server to be off, first power
off the DC by pushing the power on/off button. Make sure
your system is powered off and the AC power cord is
unplugged from the system. Failure to disconnect power
before opening your system can result in personal injur y and
equipment damage.

Operating your system with the access cover removed can
damage system components. For proper cooling and airflo w,
always replace the access cover before powering on.
