Hardware Reference Guide
Your computer includes features that make it easier to upgrade and
service.
It is very important that you follow this sequence of steps to ensure
the proper installation of any optional equipment. For more
information about Computer Setup, refer to the Computer Setup
(F10) Utility Guide. If the computer is already on, turn it off and
disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from electrical shock
and/or hot surfaces, be sure to disconnect the power cord from the wall
outlet, and allow the internal system components to cool before
touching.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, fire, or damage to the
equipment, do not plug telecommunications/telephone connectors into
the network interface controller (NIC) receptacles.
CAUTION: Static electricity can damage the electronic components of
the computer or optional equipment. Before beginning these
procedures, ensure that you are discharged of static electricity by briefly
touching a grounded metal object. Refer to Appendix E in this guide for
additional information on preventing electrostatic discharge.
