Installing or Replacing Components

Warning This unit might have more than one power cord. To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the two power supply cords before servicing the unit. Statement 14

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. Statement 1029

Caution When handling server components, wear an ESD strap to avoid damage.

Tip You can press the Locator button on the front panel to turn on a flashing Locator LED on the server front and rear panels. This button allows you to locate the specific server that you are servicing when you go to the rear of the rack. See the “Status LEDs” section on page 3-2for locations of the LEDs.
