5. Press on the switch holder tabs and slide the switch holder and switch
out of the front of the chassis panel.
6. If the switch is to be installed again, remove the switch from the
switch holder by spreading the tabs and sliding the switch out of the
back of the switch holder. It may be necessary to break the tabs to
free the switch.
7. Reverse the above procedure to install a switch.
IMPORTANT: Spreading the switch holder tabs to release the switch
fatigues the plastic and renders it less reliable for
retaining the switch. Compaq recommends that the switch
holder should be discarded and not used for another switch
installation.
