IMPORTANT: Do not modify or use the supplied AC power cord if it is not the exact type
required. Replace it, if necessary. Make sure the supplied power cord is compatible with the AC
wall outlet type in the area where the server is to be installed.
The wall receptacle must be terminated in grounding-type male plug designed for use in the region,
and be labeled as certified by an agency acceptable in the region.
When you are sure that you have the correct power cord, plug it into the server AC power
connector.
Do not plug the power cord into the wall outlet yet.
