Opening  the  bezel 
Important:  Before  you  install  optional  hardware,  make  sure  that  the  server  is 
working  correctly.  Start  the  server,  and  make  sure  that  the  operating  system  starts, 
if  an  operating  system  is  installed,  or  that  a  19990305  error  code  is  displayed, 
indicating  that  an  operating  system  was  not  found  but  the  server  is  otherwise 
working  correctly.  If  the  server  is  not  working  correctly,  see  the  Problem 
Determination  and  Service  Guide  for  diagnostic  information. 
The  following  illustration  shows  how  to  remove  the  bezel  from  the  server. 
Notes: 
1.  You  do  not  have  to  remove  the  left-side  cover  to  remove  the  bezel  from  the 
server. 
2.  You  must  unlock  the  left-side  cover  lock  to  open  or  remove  the  bezel.
 
 
To  remove  the  bezel,  complete  the  following  steps: 
1.  Read  the  safety  information  that  begins  on  page  vii  and  “Installation  guidelines” 
on  page  7. 
2.  Using  the  supplied  key,  unlock  the  left-side  cover  and  bezel. 
3.  Press  on  the  left  edge  of  the  bezel  and  rotate  it  away  from  the  server  until  it  is 
fully  open  to  180°.  The  right  edge  of  the  bezel  will  be  resting  against  the  side  of 
the  server  chassis  when  the  bezel  is  fully  open.  If  the  bezel  is  rotated  further 
than  180°,  the  break-away  hinges  will  come  apart  without  damaging  the  bezel. 
To  reattach  the  bezel,  see  “Reattaching  the  bezel”  on  page  32.
