Precautions for Use

Precautions for Installation, Relocation, Storage and Connection

WARNING

Do not put your hand inside Blade Enclosure.

When you are installing/removing the product in/from the Blade Enclosure, do not put your hand inside the Blade Enclosure. Doing so may cause an electrical shock. Do not remove the cover from the Blade Enclosure unless you are installing the device in it.

CAUTION

Use the product only in the specified places

This product should be installed in the dedicated Blade Enclosure for its use. Do not install the product in a chassis other than the Blade Enclosure. Failure to follow it may result in fire and/or electric shock to occur.

Do not block the air openings

Do not block the air openings. When they are blocked, the internal temperature will raise and may cause a fire.

Do not use any unauthorized interface cable.

Use only interface cables authorized by NEC and locate a proper device and connector before connecting a cable. Using an authorized cable or connecting a cable to an improper destination may cause a short circuit, resulting in a fire.

Also, observe the following notes on using and connecting an interface cable.

Do not use any damaged cable connector.

Do not step on the cable.

Do not put any object on the cable.

Do not use the card with the loose interface cable connection.

Do not use any damaged cable.

Do not use the equipment in the place where corrosive gases exist.

Make sure not to locate or use the equipment in the place where corrosive gases (sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, nitrogen dioxide, chlorine, ammonia, ozone, etc) exist.

Also, do not set it in the environment where the air (or dust) includes components accelerating corrosion (ex. sulfur, sodium chloride) or conductive metals.

There is a risk of a fire due to corrosion and shorts of an internal printed board. Contact your service representative for the place appropriate to the equipment.
