Step 4 Press the OIR buttons to unlock the ejectors.
Step 5 Use the number-2 Phillips screwdriver or number-2 common (flat-head) screwdriver to turn the two captive
screws on the front panel of the card counterclockwise to loosen it from the slot.
Step 6
Grasp the two card ejector levers and simultaneously pivot both ejector levers 70 degrees away from the front
edge of the card carrier to unseat the card from the backplane connector.
Step 7 Touching only the metal card carrier, slide the card from the slot and place it directly into an antistatic bag or
other ESD-preventive container. If you plan to return the defective card to the factory, repackage it in its
original shipping container.
