FCC Declaration of Conformity

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,including interference that may cause undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

·Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

·Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver

·Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit other than the one to which the receiver is connected

·Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help

Canadian Department of Communications Compliance Statement:

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications. Le présent appareil numerique német pas de bruits ra- dioélectriques dépassant les limites applicables aux appareils numériques de la classe B prescrites dans le Réglement sur le broullage radioélectrique édicté par le ministère des Communications du Canada.

WARNING

The push-button on/off power switch on the front panel of the system does not turn off the AC power. To remove AC power from the system, you must unplug the AC power cord from each power supply or wall outlet.

CAUTION, ESD Precautions

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage disk drives, add-in boards, and other parts. The system can withstand normal levels of environmental ESD. However, we recommend doing all procedures in this guide only at an ESD-protected workstation. If one is not available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground of the system — any unpainted metal surface — when handling components.

CAUTION: Use Grounded Outlet

Use only a grounded power service connection to protect yourself and your system in the event of a power surge.

Check Power Cord

WARNING

Do not modify or use a supplied AC power cord if it is not the exact type required in the region where the system will be installed and used. Only replace the cord with the correct type. Refer to the cord requirements described below.

Power Cord Requirements

Rating: Cords must be rated for available AC voltage and have a current rating at least 125% of the current rating of the system.

Connector, wall outlet end: Cords must be terminated in grounding-type male plugs designed for use in your region. It must have certification marks showing certification by an agency acceptable in your region.

Connector, power supply end: The connector that plugs into the AC receptacle on the system’s power supply must be an IEC 320, sheet C13, type female connector.

Cord length and flexibility: Cords must not be less than 4.5 feet (1.37 meters) long, and must be flexible.

Note

Surge suppressor recommended: In geographic regions that are susceptible to electrical storms, we highly recommend that you plug the system into a surge suppressor.
