System Access Warnings

Caution: To avoid personal injury or property damage, the following safety instructions apply whenever accessing the inside of the product:

•Turn off all peripheral devices connected to this product.

•Turn off the system by pressing the power button to off.

•Disconnect the AC power by unplugging all AC power cords from the system or wall outlet.

•Disconnect all cables and telecommunication lines that are connected to the system.

•Retain all screws or other fasteners when removing access cover(s). Upon completion of accessing inside the product, refasten access cover with original screws or fasteners.

•Do not access the inside of the power supply. There are no serviceable parts in the power supply. Return to manufacturer for servicing.

•Power down the server and disconnect all power cords before adding or replacing any non hot-plug component.

•When replacing a hot-plug power supply, unplug the power cord to the power supply being replaced before removing the power supply from the server.

Caution: If the server has been running, any installed processor(s) and heat sink(s) may be hot. Unless you are adding or removing a hot-plug component, allow the system to cool before opening the covers. To avoid the possibility of coming into contact with hot component(s) during a hot-plug installation, be careful when removing or installing the hot-plug component(s).

Caution: To avoid injury do not contact moving fan blades. If your system is supplied with a guard over the fan, do not operate the system without the fan guard in place.

Rack Mount Warnings

The equipment rack must be anchored to an unmovable support to prevent it from tipping when a server or piece of equipment is extended from it. The equipment rack must be installed according to the rack manufacturer's instructions.

Install equipment in the rack from the bottom up, with the heaviest equipment at the bottom of the rack.

Extend only one piece of equipment from the rack at a time.

You are responsible for installing a main power disconnect for the entire rack unit. This main disconnect must be readily accessible, and it must be labeled as controlling power to the entire unit, not just to the server(s).

To avoid risk of potential electric shock, a proper safety ground must be implemented for the rack and each piece of equipment installed in it.
