Electrical Safety
Observe the following safety instructions any time you are connecting or
disconnecting devices to the workstation.
DANGER:
An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place
hazardous voltage on metal parts of the system or the devices that
attach to the system. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure
that the outlet is correctly wired and grounded to prevent an electrical shock.
Before installing or removing signal cables, ensure that the power cables
for the system unit and all attached devices are unplugged.
When adding or removing any additional devices to or from the system,
ensure that the power cables for those devices are unplugged before the
signal cables are connected. If possible, disconnect all power cables from
the existing system before you add a device.
Use one hand, when possible, to connect or disconnect signal cables to pre-
vent a possible shock from touching two surfaces with different electrical
potentials.
During an electrical storm, do not connect cables for display stations, print-
ers, telephones, or station protectors for communications lines.
To prevent electrical shock hazard, disconnect the power cable from the
electrical outlet before relocating the system.
CAUTION:
This product is equipped with a three-wire power cable
and plug for the user’s safety. Use the power cable in conjunction
with a properly grounded electrical outlet to avoid electrical shock.
Static-Sensitive Devices
WARNING:
Adapters, planars, diskette drives, and disk drives are
sensitive to static electricity discharge. These devices are wrapped in
antistatic bags to prevent this damage. Take the following precautions:
•
If you have an antistatic wrist strap available, use it while handling the
device.
•
Do not remove the device from the antistatic bag until you are ready to
install the device in the system unit.
•
With the device still in its antistatic bag, touch it to a metal frame of the
system.
•
Grasp cards and boards by the edges. Hold drives by the frame. Avoid
touching the solder joints or pins.
•
If you need to lay the device down while it is out of the antistatic bag,
lay it on the antistatic bag. Before picking it up again, touch the anti-
static bag and the metal frame of the system unit at the same time.
•
Handle the devices carefully in order to prevent permanent damage.
