NOTE: The subpanel and bezel blanks must be removed from the front bezel if you are installing a
mass storage device for the first time, or if you are converting the unit from a minitower to a desktop
configuration or from a desktop to a minitower configuration.
To remove the bezel blank from the front bezel:
1. Perform the steps in the "Service Preparations" section as previously shown.
2. Remove the side workstation access panel.
3. Remove the front bezel.
4. Gently pull the subpanel, with the bezel blank secured in it, away from the front bezel, and
then remove the bezel blank.
Figure 3-6. Removing the subpanel and bezel blanks
To replace the subpanel and bezel blanks, reverse the above procedure. Be sure the subpanel and
front bezel align properly with the alignment tabs. See Figure 3-7 for the subpanel
keyed-alignment positions.
NOTE: When switching from minitower to desktop orientation, the bezel blank should be switched out
with the replacement provided to ensure that the Compaq logo is properly oriented.
CAUTION: Before removing the workstation access panel, ensure that the workstation is
turned off, all cables are disconnected from the back of the workstation, and the power cord is
disconnected from the grounded AC outlet.
CAUTION: Hold the subpanel straight when you pull it away from the front bezel. Pulling at an
angle could damage the pins that align the subpanel within the front bezel.
