Connecting the power cable |
WARNING: Be sure to use the power cable supplied with the server. Using another power cable may cause an outbreak of fire.
Plug the power cable into an AC outlet with a ground line. If the power cable is plugged into an unspecified AC outlet, it may cause an outbreak of fire or electric shock.
When disconnecting the power cable from the AC outlet, don’t pull the cord but hold the plug. If the power cable is pulled for disconnection, it may cause not only breakdown of the power cable but an outbreak of fire or electric shock. When connecting and disconnecting the power cable, hold the plug without fail.
NOTE: Before plugging the power cable into an AC outlet, check to see if the AC outlet has a current capacity enough to cover the whole power consumption of the server system. If the power consumption exceeds the capacity of the AC out- let, it may cause the equipment to be damaged or to catch fire.
Don’t share the power supply of an AC outlet with any electric appliance that consumes high electric power or generates electric noise, such as an air conditioner or photocopier.
Don’t turn the power off during POST, except for some urgent needs. The power is forcibly turned off by pressing the power/ sleep button for more than 4 seconds.
