www.gateway.com • Avoid static-causing surfaces such as carpeted floors, plastic, and packing foam. • Avoid working on the server when your work area is extremely humid. • Remove components from their antistatic bags only when you are ready to use them. Do not lay components on the outside of antistatic bags because only the inside of the bags provide electrostatic protection. • Always hold expansion cards by their edges or their metal mounting brackets. Avoid touching the edge connectors and components on the cards. Never slide expansion cards or components over any surface. Warning To prevent risk of electric shock, do not insert any object into the vent holes of the power supply. Opening the server case Warning This server may have two power cords. To disconnect internal AC power, you must unplug both power cords. Because the components inside your server are extremely sensitive to static electricity, make sure that you follow the instructions at the beginning of this chapter to avoid static electricity damage. To open the server: Warning Screws are required to support the front of the server when using the standard cabinet rails. You must support the server while removing the front screws and while sliding the server off the cabinet rails. If the server is not supported, damage to the server or injury may result. 1 Follow the instructions in "Preventing static electricity discharge" on page 24. Make sure that you turn off the server, then unplug the power cord(s) and all other cables connected to the server. Important If you are replacing a hot-swappable system fan, you do not need to turn off the server or unplug the power cord(s) and other cables. 2 If the bezel is installed, unlock it, then pull it off. 3 If the server is mounted in a cabinet, remove it from the cabinet. 4 Place the server on a stable, non-skid surface. 25
