Handling precautions
Be sure to observe the following precautions for the proper functioning of the server. Ignoring the precautions
may cause server malfunction or failure.
• Do not use any cell phones and switch off them near the server. Electric waves from such devices can
cause server to malfunction.
• Install the server in an appropriate place. For details, see Chapter 2 (2. Installation and Connection).
• If a peripheral device is not plug-and-play device, make sure that the server is off and unplug the power
cord before connecting/removing cables to/from the device.
• Connect the provided power cord to a 100/200 VAC outlet.
• Make sure that the access LED on the server is off before turning off the power or ejecting an optical disk.
• Wait for at least 30 seconds before turning on the server after turning off the server. If any Uninterruptible
Power Supply (UPS) unit is connected, set it to wait for at least 30 seconds before turning on the server
after power off.
• Turn off the server and unplug the power cord before moving it.
• Regularly clean the server to prevent various types of failure. For details, see Chapter 1 (2. Daily
Maintenance) in "Maintenance Guide".
• Momentary voltage drop may occur due to lightning strike. To prevent this, use of UPS is recommended.
• We do not guarantee that the server’s optical disk drive will play a copy-protected CD that does not
conform to standards.
• In the following cases, check and adjust the system clock before operation.
− After transportation
− After storage
− After the server is used following a period of disuse, in which the storage conditions did not conform to
the conditions that guarantee server operations (temperature: 5 to 40°C (when High Temperature
Resistant Kit is installed: 5 to 45°C) (it's subject to composition restrictions.)); humidity: 20% to 80%).
• Check the system clock approximately once per month.
• Keep the following storage conditions.
Temperature: −10°C to 55°C, Humidity: 20% to 80% (No condensation of moisture)
• Do not use the server, or removable/backup media such as tape cartridges when moving them from a cold
place to a warm place. The condensation will occur and cause malfunctions and failures when these are
used in such state. Use the server after waiting sufficiently.
Reference: Time effective at avoiding condensation in winter (5°C or more differences between the room
temperature and atmospheric temperature)
− Disk devices: Approximately 2 to 3 hours
− Tape media: Approximately 1 day
• For optional devices, we recommend you use our NEC products. Even if they are successfully installed or
connected, installation of unsupported devices can cause the server to malfunction or even failure. You will
be charged to repair failure or damage caused by use of such products even within warranty period.

Using a computer extensively may affect different parts of your body. Here are tips you should follow while working on
a computer to minimize strain on your body.
Keep proper posture
The basic body position for using a computer is sitting straight with
your hands on the keyboard parallel with the floor, and your eyes
directed slightly downward toward the monitor. With the proper
posture described above, no unnecessary strain is applied on any
part of your body, in other words when your muscles are most
relaxed.
Working on the computer with bad posture such as hunching over or
being too close to the monitor could cause fatigue or deteriorated
eyesight.
Adjust the angle of your display
Most display units are designed for adjustment of the horizontal and
vertical angles. This adjustment is important to prevent the screen
from reflecting bright lights and to make the display contents easy to
see. Working without adjusting the display to a comfortable angle
makes it difficult for you to maintain a proper posture and you will
get tired easily. Adjust the viewing angle before use.
Adjust the brightness and contrast of the display
Display screens have functions to control brightness and contrast.
The most suitable brightness/contrast depends on age, individuals,
and environment, so adjust it to suit your preferences. A too bright
or too dark display is bad for your eyes.
Adjust the angle of keyboard
Some keyboards are ergonomically designed, which allow the angle
to be adjusted. Adjusting the angle of the keyboard is effective to
reduce tension on your shoulders, arms, and fingers.
Clean your equipment
Keeping your equipment clean is important not only for the appearance but also for functional and safety reasons. A
dusty monitor makes it difficult to see the display contents, so clean it regularly.
Take rest breaks
When you feel tired, take a break. Light exercise is also
recommended.

Use of external USB devices
If you connect an external USB DVD-ROM drive to a USB connector at the
front of the server, do not connect any other device to the adjacent USB port.
* The ports in a box in the images below are “adjacent USB ports”.
Note the following precautions to connect cables
• Turn off the server and peripheral devices to be connected before connecting.
• If connecting any peripheral device and its interface cable made by other companies (a third party),
contact your sales representative to check if they can be used with the server beforehand.
• Fix the power cord or interface cable with cable ties so that it does not touch the rack door or side guide
rail.
• Make sure that no pressure is applied on the plug of power cord.
• A leased line cannot be directly connected to the serial port connector. If you connect a card to a line, use
the card which you have applied for with the certification authority.
