Safety Guidelines for Personal Safety and Equipment Protection
The following guidelines help ensure your safety and protect the equipment. This list does not include
all the potentially hazardous situations. Therefore, you should be on alert.
•Before moving the system, always disconnect all the power cords and interface cables.
•Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit; always check.
•Before and after installation, keep the chassis area clear and dust-free.
•Keep tools and assembly components away from walk areas where you or others could trip over
them.
•Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.
•Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe.
•Do not wear loose clothing that may get caught in the chassis.
•When working under conditions that may be hazardous to your eyes, wear safety glasses.

Hazardous network voltages are present in WAN ports regardless of whether power to the unit is OFF
or ON. To avoid electric shock, use caution when working near WAN ports. When detaching cables,
detach the end away from the unit first.

Warning
Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to
hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI)
that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not
operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place.
Statement1029
Warning
Hazardous voltage or energy is present on the backplane when the system is operating. Use caution
when servicing.
