Insert the display module into the front panel cutout and secure with the two M3 x 12 T10 Torx
panhead screws.

Locate the replacement label for the front of the display, remove the liner from the adhesive
backing on the label, and apply the label to the front of the display module.

Install the control panel board in the system chassis directly behind the display module and
secure with the three M3 x 5 T10 Torx panhead screws. See Figure 1-7.

NOTICE: Do not over-tighten the screws.

Reroute the control panel interface cable back into the interior of the system chassis, and
connect the control panel interface cable to the control panel board. See Figure 1-7.

e

Connect the display module cable to the connector on the control panel board. See Figure 1-7.
Ensure that the cable is fully seated before you press the locking ring into position.

NOTE:

Ensure that the hard drives, any optical drives, and devices are reinstalled into the same positions

from which they were removed. The devices should be labeled appropriately.
