      The power supply unit is located to the right of Power Supply #1.

    2. Adjust the slider of the retention strap. Push up the locking tab on the bottom of the slider.

    4. Lock the retention strap to the power cord by pulling the slider strap over the power cord.
  2. Plug the other end of the power cords into grounded electrical outlets or to separate power sources, such as an uninterrupted power supply (UPS) or a power distribution unit (PDU).
