Safety Statements

CAUTION

The following safety statements must be read before you install or operate the 2Gb SANbloc Series. For language translations of these statements refer to Appendix B.

CAUTION: This equipment is intended only for installation in a restricted access location.

CAUTION: Before attempting to install or remove any of the com- ponents, ensure that anti-static precautions are taken. The mini- mum requirement is, a properly grounded anti-static wrist strap and ground wire.

CAUTION: If any of the components are removed the resulting hole must be blocked, by installing a component blank or replac- ing the component. Failure to do so can seriously restrict air flow and cooling.

CAUTION: This device should be connected to a power source which carries a fuse or circuit breaker that is greater than the rat- ing of the shelf, but also complies with national wiring standards.

CAUTION: Allow disk drives and power supplies to reach room ambient temperature before powering on the shelf.
