1. Read the safety information that begins on page vii and "Installation guidelines"
on page 9.
2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect all external cables
and power cords; then, remove the side cover. See "Removing the side cover"
on page 12.
3. Follow the cabling instructions that come with the adapter to set jumpers or
switches, if there are any. Route the adapter cables before you install the
adapter.
4. Rotate the front and rear adapter-retention brackets to the open (unlocked)
position.
5. Remove the screw that secures the expansion-slot cover to the chassis. Store
the expansion-slot cover and screw in a safe place for future use.
Note: Expansion-slot covers must be installed on all vacant slots. This
maintains the electronic emissions standards of the server and ensures
proper ventilation of server components.
6. Touch the static-protective package that contains the adapter to any unpainted
metal surface on the server. Then, remove the adapter from the
static-protective package. Avoid touching the components and gold-edge
connectors on the adapter.
7. If you are installing a full-length adapter, remove the adapter guide 1 (if any)
from the end of the adapter.
