Safety Instructions
● Do not push any objects into the openings of the system. Doing so can cause fire or electric shock by
shorting out interior components.
● Use the product only with approved equipment.
● Allow the product to cool before removing covers or touching internal components.
● Operate the product only from the type of external power source indicated on the electrical ratings
label. If unsure of the type of power source required, consult your service provider or local power
company.
● To help avoid damaging the system, be sure the voltage selection switch (if provided) on the power
supply is set to match the power available where the switch is located:
● 115 volts (V)/60 hertz (Hz) in most of North and South America and some Far Eastern countries
such as South Korea and Taiwan
● 100 V/50 Hz in eastern Japan and 100 V/60 Hz in western Japan
● 230 V/50 Hz in most of Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East
● Also, be sure that attached devices are electrically rated to operate with the power available in your
location.
● Use only approved power cable(s). If you have not been provided with a power cable for your
system or for any AC-powered option intended for your system, purchase a power cable that is
approved for use in your country. The power cable must be rated for the product and for the voltage
and current marked on the product's electrical ratings label. The voltage and current rating of the
cable should be greater than the ratings marked on the product.
● To help prevent electric shock, plug the system and peripheral power cables into properly grounded
electrical outlets. These cables are equipped with three-prong plugs to help ensure proper
grounding. Do not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong from a cable. If using an
extension cable is necessary, use a 3-wire cable with properly grounded plugs.
● Observe extension cable and power strip ratings. Make sure that the total ampere rating of all
products plugged into the extension cable or power strip does not exceed 80 percent of the ampere
ratings limit for the extension cable or power strip.
● To help protect the system from sudden, transient increases and decreases in electrical power, use a
surge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
● Position system cables and power cables carefully; route cables so that they cannot be stepped on or
tripped over. Be sure that nothing rests on any cables.
● Do not modify power cables or plugs. Consult a licensed electrician or your power company for site
modifications. Always follow your local/national wiring rules.
● When connecting or disconnecting power to hot-pluggable power supplies, if offered with your
system, observe the following guidelines:
● Install the power supply before connecting the power cable to the power supply.
● Unplug the power cable before removing the power supply.
● If the system has multiple sources of power, disconnect power from the system by unplugging all
power cables from the power supplies.
● Move products with care; ensure that all casters and/or stabilizers are firmly connected to the
system. Avoid sudden stops and uneven surfaces.

Preface
General Precautions for Rack-Mountable Products
Observe the following precautions for rack stability and safety. Also, refer to the rack installation
documentation accompanying the system and the rack for specific caution statements and procedures.
Systems are considered to be components in a rack. Thus, “component” refers to any system as well as
to various peripherals or supporting hardware.
Installing systems in a rack without the front and side stabilizers installed could cause the rack to tip over,
potentially resulting in bodily injury under certain circumstances. Therefore, always install the stabilizers before
installing components in the rack. After installing system/components in a rack, never pull more than one
component out of the rack on its slide assemblies at one time. The weight of more than one extended component
could cause the rack to tip over and may result in serious injury.
● Before working on the rack, make sure that the stabilizers are secured to the rack, extended to the
floor, and that the full weight of the rack rests on the floor. Install front and side stabilizers on a
single rack or front stabilizers for joined multiple racks before working on the rack.
● Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item in the rack first.
● Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a component from the rack.
● Use caution when pressing the component rail release latches and sliding a component into or out of
a rack; the slide rails can pinch your fingers.
● After a component is inserted into the rack, carefully extend the rail into a locking position, and then
slide the component into the rack.
● Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack. The total rack load
should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.
● Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.
● Do not step on or stand on any component when servicing other components in a rack.
A qualified electrician must perform all connections to DC power and to safety grounds. All electrical
wiring must comply with applicable local, regional or national codes and practices.
Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence of a suitably installed
ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician if uncertain that
suitable grounding is available.
The system chassis must be positively grounded to the rack cabinet frame. Do not attempt to connect
power to the system until grounding cables are connected. Completed power and safety ground wiring must be

inspected by a qualified electrical inspector. An energy hazard will exist if the safety ground cable is omitted or
disconnected.
Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge
Static electricity can harm delicate components inside the system. To prevent static damage, discharge
static electricity from your body before touching any of the electronic components, such as the
microprocessor. This can be done by periodically touching an unpainted metal surface on the chassis.
The following steps can also be taken prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD):
1 When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, do not remove the
component from the antistatic packing material until ready to install the component in the system.
Just before unwrapping the antistatic packaging, be sure to discharge static electricity from your
body.
2 When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic container or packaging.
3 Handle all sensitive components in a static-safe area. If possible, use antistatic floor pads, workbench
pads and an antistatic grounding strap.
