Appendix F Safety, Warranty

All ATTO host adapter products have been tested to meet applicable safety standards when operated in proper electrical and thermal environments.

Safety

Please review the specifications for your specific host adapter before installing and operating it in any computer system to ensure compatibility.

Installation

Before installing an ATTO host adapter product into your computer system, unplug the computer from its electrical power source and allow adequate time for electrical discharge and the internal components to cool down before removing the computer system cover. This will decrease the risk of personal injury from electrical shock or touching the hot surface of an electrical component.

Once an ATTO host adapter is installed in a computer system, the computer cover must be reinstalled properly before turning the computer system back on.

Operation

ATTO host adapters require adequate cooling to function properly. If you have any questions as to the airflow provided by your computer system, please refer to your computer system manual or contact your computer system manufacturer.

To facilitate proper air circulation, ATTO host adapters should never be operated in a computer system without the cover installed or with an inoperable fan as this may cause safety or thermal problems which could damage the ATTO host adapter and void the warranty.
