CAUTION: To avoid the risk of damage to your system or expansion boards,
remove all AC power cords before installing or removing expansion boards. With
the front panel power switch in the Standby position, auxiliary power is still
connected to the PCI expansion slot and may damage the card.
7. Close the expansion slot latch to secure the board 5.
CAUTION: Moving your server Power On/Standby switch to the Standby position
removes power from most areas of the server; this may take up to 30 seconds.
Portions of the power supply and some internal circuitry remain active until AC
power is removed.
IMPORTANT: When you install a board, make sure you press firmly on the board so that
the entire connector seats properly in the riser board slot.
