Opening and Closing the Base Unit

When opening the base unit for service or upgrades, remove the top cover first, then remove
the left side panel. For most service procedures, you will need to remove both top cover and
left side panel. See Chapter 2, "Servicing the System," for additional details.
CAUTION Do not use the bottom portion of the face panel or the lip at the top back of the base unit as a
hand hold when moving the system. These panels can come loose and cause the unit to fall
if they are used for hand holds. Equipment damage and personal injury can result.
CAUTION Before you open the base unit, shut down the system and turn off power to the system and
external devices (including peripheral drives and monitor). Use caution to avoid injury when
lifting the computer or removing covers and other hardware.
To open the base unit:
1. Ensure the system is shut down and that you have disconnected the system and any
attached external devices from AC power.
2. Grasp the lip on the top cover at the back of the system and press up on the release tab.
See the following figure.
3. Keep pressing the release, slide the top cover back until it stops, remove it from the
chassis, and set it aside.
4. Grasp the cowling at the bottom of the left side panel and lift.
5. Slide the left side panel back until it stops, remove it from the chassis, and set it aside.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 to remove the right side panel, if necessary.
Press up on release tab
located under this lip.
