4 Unplug the power cord.
Warning Always shut down your Macintosh Server G4 before opening it to avoid damaging
its internal components or the components you want to install. Do not open the server or
attempt to install items inside it while it is turned on. After shutting down your server, the
internal components can be very hot. Let the server cool down before continuing.
Touch the metal
portion of the PCI
port access covers.
Important Always do this before you touch any parts, or install any components, inside
the server. To avoid generating static electricity, do not walk around the room until you
have finished installing the expansion card, memory, or internal storage device and closed
the server.
Warning The power supply in your server is a high-voltage component and should not
be opened for any reason, even when the server is off. If the power supply needs service,
contact your Apple-authorized dealer or service provider.
