Appendix A: Cautions and Warnings

Caution Statements

A caution calls your attention to a possible hazard that can damage equipment.

"Vorsicht” weist auf die Gefahr einer möglichen Beschädigung des Gerätes in.

Une mise en garde attire votre attention sur un risque possible d'endommagement de l'équipement. Ci-dessous, vous trouverez les mises en garde utilisées dans ce manuel.

Un mensaje de precaución le advierte sobre un posible peligro que pueda dañar el equipo. Las siguientes son precauciones utilizadas en este manual.

CAUTION: Remove the power cord from a power supply before you install it in or remove it from the device. Otherwise, the power supply or the device could be damaged as a result. (The device can be running while a power supply is being installed or removed, but the power supply itself should not be connected to a power source.)

VORSICHT: Trennen Sie das Stromkabel vom Netzteil ab, bevor es installiert oder vom Gerät entfernt wird. Andernfalls kann das Netzteil oder Gerät beschädigt werden. (Das Gerät kann während der Installation oder Entfernen eines Netzteils laufen. Allerdings sollte das Netzteil an keine Stromquelle angeschlossen sein.)

MISE EN GARDE : Afin d'éviter d'endommager le bloc d'alimentation, assurez-vous que le cordon d'alimentation ne soit pas connecté à une source de courant lorsque celui-ci est inséré or retiré du châssis. Le commutateur peut fonctionner en utilisant une source de courant alternative au bloc d'alimentation que l'on veut insérer ou enlever, mais il est important que celui que l'on insère ou retire ne soit pas raccordé électriquement.

PRECAUCIÓN Retire el cable de alimentación de un suministro de energía antes de instalarlo en él o de retirarlo del dispositivo. De no hacerse así, el suministro de energía o el dispositivo podrían resultar dañados. (El dispositivo puede estar funcionando mientras se está instalando o retirando un suministro de energía, pero el suministro de energía en sí no deberá estar conectado a una toma de corriente)

CAUTION: To avoid improper ventilation to the switch’s internal circuitry and units, never leave an empty slot uncovered. If a removed power supply is not replaced, insert the supplied blank PSU filler into the slot and fasten it to the panel with the two screws.

VORSICHT: Ein leerer Steckplatz darf unter keinen Umständen zugedeckt werden, um eine mangelnde Be- und Entlüftung der Schaltkreise und Bauteile im Schalter auszuschließen. Falls ein abentferntes Netzteil nicht wieder ersetzt wird, benutzen Sie bitte die mitgelieferte Abdeck-Blende und schrauben Sie diese mit den beiden Schrauben an die Frontplatte

MISE EN GARDE : Pour éviter un dysfonctionnement du circuit de ventilation et ainsi un mauvais refroidissement des éléments qui composent le dispositif, ne laissez jamais un emplacement vide non couvert. Si un bloc d’alimentation enlevé n’est pas remplacé, insérez un cache de bloc d’alimentation dans l’emplacement vide et fixez-le au panneau avec les deux vis

PRECAUCIÓN: Para evitar una ventilación inadecuada a la circuitería interna y unidades del interruptor, no deje nunca un slot vacío al descubierto. Si un suministro de
