Before reading this manual

For your safety

This manual contains important information for safely and correctly using this
product.

Carefully read the manual before using this product. Pay particular attention to
the accompanying manual "Safety Notes and Regulations" and ensure these
safety notes are understood before using the product. Keep this manual and the
manual "Safety Notes and Regulations" in a safe place for easy reference while
using this product.

Radio interference

This product is a "Class A" ITE (Information Technology Equipment). In a
domestic environment this product may cause radio interference, in which case
the user may be required to take appropriate measures. VCCI-A

Aluminum electrolytic capacitors

The aluminum electrolytic capacitors used in the product's printed circuit board
assemblies and in the mouse and keyboard are limited-life components. Use of
these components beyond their operating life may result in electrolyte leakage
or depletion, potentially causing emission of foul odor or smoke.

As a guideline, in a normal office environment (25°C) operating life is not
expected to be reached within the maintenance support period (5 years).
However, operating life may be reached more quickly if, for example, the product
is used in a hot environment. The customer shall bear the cost of replacing
replaceable components which have exceeded their operating life. Note that
these are only guidelines, and do not constitute a guarantee of trouble-free
operation during the maintenance support period.

High safety use

This product has been designed and manufactured for general uses such as
general office use, personal use, domestic use and normal industrial use. It has
not been designed or manufactured for uses which demand an extremely high
level of safety and carry a direct and serious risk to life or body if such safety
cannot be ensured.

Technical Manual D2952 (BX924 S2)

These uses include control of nuclear reactions in nuclear power plants,
automatic airplane flight control, air traffic control, traffic control in mass
transport systems, medical devices for life support, and missile guidance control
in weapons systems (hereafter, "high safety use"). Customers should not use
this product for high safety use unless measures are in place for ensuring the
level of safety demanded of such use. Please consult the sales staff of Fujitsu if
intending to use this product for high safety use.

Measures against momentary voltage drop

This product may be affected by a momentary voltage drop in the power supply
caused by lightning. To prevent a momentary voltage drop, use of an AC
uninterruptible power supply is recommended.

(This notice follows the guidelines of Voltage Dip Immunity of Personal
Computer issued by JEITA, the Japan Electronics and Information Technology
Industries Association.)

2 Important notes

In this chapter you will find essential information regarding safety when working
with your server.

V CAUTION!

With the system board installed you must open the system to access the
system board. How to access the system board of your system is
described in the appropriate service supplement (except for the
Japanese market).

When handling the system board, refer to the specific notes on safety in
the operating manual and/or service supplement for the respective
server.

2.1 Notes on safety

V CAUTION!

● The actions described in these instructions should only be performed

by authorized, qualified personnel. Equipment repairs should only be
performed by qualified staff. Any failure to observe the guidelines in
this manual, and any unauthorized openings and improper repairs
could expose the user to risks (electric shock, fire hazards) and could
also damage the equipment. Please note that any unauthorized
openings of the device will result in the invalidation of the warranty
and exclusion from all liability.

● Transport the device only in the antistatic original packaging or in

packaging that protects it from knocks and jolts.

● Only install expansions that are allowed for the system board. If you

install other expansions, you may damage the requirements and rules
governing safety and electromagnetic compatibility or your system.
Information on which system expansions are approved for installation
can be obtained from our customer service center or your sales
outlet.

● The warranty expires if the device is damaged during the installation

or replacement of system expansions.

Notes on safety

V CAUTION!

● Components can become very hot during operation. Ensure you do

not touch components when making extensions to the system board.
There is a danger of burns!

● Transmission lines to peripheral devices must be adequately

shielded.

● Ethernet cabling has to comply with EN 50173 and EN 50174-1/2

standards or ISO/IEC 11801 standard respectively. The minimum
requirement is a Category 5 shielded cable for 10/100 Ethernet, or
Category 5e for Gigabit Ethernet.

● Never connect or disconnect data transmission lines during a storm

(risk of lightning hazard).

Batteries

V CAUTION!

● Incorrect replacement of batteries may lead to a risk of explosion. The

batteries may only be replaced with identical batteries or with a type
recommended by the manufacturer (this information doesn’t apply to
the Japanese market).

It is essential to observe the instructions in chapter "Replacing the

lithium battery".
