6. Slide the power supply assembly to the front of the computer and then lift it out of the chassis.
7. Ensure that the new power supply assembly is the correct replacement. If your new power supply
assembly has a voltage-selection switch, ensure that you set the voltage-selection switch to match the
voltage available at your electrical outlet. If necessary, use a ballpoint pen to slide the voltage-selection
switch to a different position.
• If the voltage supply range in your local country or region is 100–127 V ac, set the switch to 115 V.
• If the voltage supply range in your local country or region is 200–240 V ac, set the switch to 230 V.
8. Install the new power supply assembly into the chassis so that the screw holes in the power supply
assembly align with those in the chassis.
9. Install and tighten the four screws to secure the power supply assembly.
