how to install HPE Gen10 2U Bezel Kit
Installing the HPE Gen10 2U Bezel Kit is designed to be quick and trouble-free, with steps that align to standard Gen10 chassis procedures. Follow these steps to ensure a proper fit and secure mounting that maintains serviceability and airflow around the front of your 2U server.

- Secure the bezel using the mounting screws or hardware included with the kit, tightening just enough to keep the bezel flush without over-tightening, which could cause warping.
- Close the front of the chassis, reconnect power, and power up the server to verify alignment, fit, and the visibility of LEDs and indicators through the bezel openings.
