Safety Guidelines

Before you remove a server cover, observe these safety guidelines:

•Only technically qualified personnel should integrate the server.

•Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the server.

•Turn off the server using the push-button on/off power switch on the front panel of the server, and unplug the AC power cord from the power supply or wall outlet.

•Label and disconnect all peripheral cables attached to the I/O panel on the back of the server.

•Provide some electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground of the server—any unpainted metal surface—when handling components.

Server Precautions

WARNINGS

SERVER POWER ON/OFF: The push-button on/off power switch on the front panel of the server does not turn off the AC power. To remove AC power from the server, you must unplug the AC power cord from either the power supply or wall outlet.

HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS—POWER SUPPLY: Hazardous voltage,

current, and energy levels are present inside the power supply enclosure. There are no user-serviceable parts inside it; servicing should only be done by technically qualified personnel.

HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS—DEVICES AND CABLES: Hazardous electrical

conditions may be present on power, telephone, and communication cables. Turn off the server and disconnect telecommunications systems, networks, modems, and the power cord attached to the server before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result.

AVOID INJURY: To avoid personal injury when unpacking the server, use only a mechanical assist unit to lift it off the shipping pallet. The minimum server configuration weighs 38 kg (85 lbs.); the maximum weighs 45 kg (100 lbs.).

Do not attempt to lift or move the server by the handles on the power supplies.

Use only a hand-truck or other mechanical assist unit to move the server from one location to another.
