Rack System Warning

The following warnings apply to Racks and Rack Mounted systems.

Caution – For safety, equipment should always be loaded from the bottom up. That is, install the equipment that will be mounted in the lowest part of the rack first, then the next higher systems, etc.

Caution – To prevent the rack from tipping during equipment installation, the anti-tilt bar on the rack must be deployed.

Caution – To prevent extreme operating temperature within the rack insure that the maximum temperature does not exceed the product’s ambient rated temperatures.

Caution – To prevent extreme operating temperatures due to reduced airflow consideration should be made to the amount of air flow that is required for a safe operation of the equipment.

CD and DVD Devices

The following caution applies to CD, DVD, and other optical devices.

Caution – Use of controls, adjustments, or the performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Conformité aux normes de sécurité

Veuillez lire attentivement cette section avant de commencer. Ce texte traite des mesures de sécurité qu’il convient de prendre pour l’installation d’un produit Sun Microsystems.

Mesures de sécurité

Pour votre sécurité, nous vous recommandons de suivre scrupuleusement les mesures de sécurité ci-dessous lorsque vous installez votre matériel:

■Suivez tous les avertissements et toutes les instructions inscrites sur le matériel.

■Assurez-vous que la tension et la fréquence de votre source d'alimentation correspondent à la tension et à la fréquence indiquées sur l'étiquette de la tension électrique nominale du matériel

■N'introduisez jamais d'objets quels qu'ils soient dans les ouvertures de l'équipement. Vous pourriez vous trouver en présence de hautes tensions dangereuses. Tout objet étranger conducteur risque de produire un court-circuit pouvant présenter un risque d'incendie ou de décharge électrique, ou susceptible d'endommager le matériel.
