NOTE:

Installing filler brackets over empty card-slot openings is necessary to maintain FCC certification of the computer. The brackets keep dust

and dirt out of your computer and maintain the airflow that cools your computer.

CAUTION:

Do not route card cables over the cards. Cables routed over the cards can prevent the computer cover from closing properly or cause

damage to the equipment.
