Carefully take hold of the front bezel and pull straight out from

the appliance until the magnets release. Set it aside.

Remove the Drives

qu'un monte-charge (ou deux personnes au moins) soit utilisé lors

de l'installation ou de l'enlèvement du support.

1. Based on the mounting system, carefully remove the

appliance from the rack as follows:

• Fixed brackets – Remove and retain the four screws

from the front flanges and move the unit onto the lifter.

• Sliding rails – Release the two captive screws, slide

the unit out until it stops, release the rail locks, and

slide the unit out and onto the lifter.

2. Move the unit onto a secure ESD-safe surface.
