2. Align the tabs under the front edge of the cover with the slots in the top edge
of the chassis.
3. Pull the cover toward the rear of the chassis and set it down over the chassis.
4. Check that the rear corners of the top cover fit over the back of the chassis.
5. Secure the top cover to the rear of the chassis with the screw previously
removed.
6. Replace the front panel (see "Replacing the Front Panel — Minitower").
7. Replace the side covers (see "Replacing the Minitower Side Covers").

board for access to the components.
To open the hinged chassis floor, use the following steps.
1. Remove the left side cover (see "Removing the Minitower Side Covers").
2. Swivel the two chassis feet inward, out of the way.
3. Place the system unit on its right side.
