server, place the board component side up on a grounded, static free surface. Use a conductive foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide board over any surface.

Other Hazards

Battery Replacement

Caution: There is the danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. When replacing the battery, use only the battery recommended by the equipment manufacturer.

Dispose of batteries according to local ordinances and regulations.

Do not attempt to recharge a battery.

Do not attempt to disassemble, puncture, or otherwise damage a battery.

Cooling and Airflow

Caution: Carefully route cables as directed to minimize airflow blockage and cooling problems.

For proper cooling and airflow, operate the system only with the chassis covers installed. Operating the system without the covers in place can damage system parts. To install the covers:

Check first to make sure you have not left loose tools or parts inside the system.

Check that cables, add-in boards, and other components are properly installed.

Attach the covers to the chassis according to the product instructions.

Laser Peripherals or Devices

Caution: To avoid risk of radiation exposure and/or personal injury:

Do not open the enclosure of any laser peripheral or device

Laser peripherals or devices have are not user serviceable
