before connecting power.

Cautions

Dual power supplies may be present — Be certain to plug each power supply

cord into a separate branch circuit employing a separate service ground.
Disconnect all power supply cords prior to servicing.

Ensure mains disconnect — If mains switch is not provided, the power cord(s)

of this equipment provide the means of disconnection. The socket outlet
must be installed near the equipment and must be easily accessible. Verify
that all mains power is disconnected before installing or removing power
supplies and/or options.

Use proper lift points — Do not use door latches to lift or move equipment.

Avoid mechanical hazards — Allow all rotating devices to come to a stop before

servicing.

result in damage to equipment or other property

Use correct power source — Do not operate this product from a power source

that applies more than the voltage specified for the product.

Use correct voltage setting — If this product lacks auto-ranging power sup-

plies, before applying power ensure that the each power supply is set to
match the power source.

Provide proper ventilation — To prevent product overheating, provide equip-

ment ventilation in accordance with installation instructions.

Kayak HD — Installation and Service Manual 19

Safety Summary

Use anti-static procedures — Static sensitive components are present which

may be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Use anti-static procedures,
equipment and surfaces during servicing.

Do not operate with suspected equipment failure — If you suspect product damage

personnel.

Route cable properly — Route power cords and other cables so that they ar not

likely to be damaged. Properly support heavy cable bundles to avoid con
nector damage.

Use correct power supply cords — Power cords for this equipment, if provided,

meet all North American electrical codes. Operation of this equipment at
voltages exceeding 130 VAC requires power supply cords which comply
with NEMA configurations. International power cords, if provided, have
the approval of the country of use.

Use correct replacement battery — This product may contain batteries. To

reduce the risk of explosion, check polarity and replace only with the same
or equivalent type recommended by manufacturer. Dispose of used bat
teries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

-

-

Troubleshoot only to board level — Circuit boards in this product are densely

populated with surface mount technology (SMT) components and applica
tion specific integrated circuits (ASICS). As a result, circuit board repair at
the component level is very difficult in the field, if not impossible. For war
ranty compliance, do not troubleshoot systems beyond the board level.
