Before you set up a console, you must remove the shipping bracket and connect power cords.
About this task
Attention:
• Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap to the front ESD jack, to the rear ESD jack,

installing or replacing hardware, touch an unpainted metal surface of the system for a minimum
of 5 seconds.
