CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of damage to the equipment, verify that all AC voltage
selector switches are set correctly to match your local AC line voltage
(115V or 230V). If the AC voltage selector switch is not properly set, your
components will be damaged when power is applied.
The installation of this equipment shall be in accordance with local/regional electrical
regulations governing the installation of Information Technology Equipment by
licensed electricians. This equipment is designed to operate in installations covered
by the National Electric Code (ANSI/NFPA-70, 1993) and the code for Protection of
Electronic Computer/Data Processing Equipment (NFPA-75, 1992).
For electrical power ratings on options, refer to the product’s rating label or user
documentation supplied with that option.
Grounding Requirements
For proper operation and safety, all powered rack-mountable components are
required to be properly grounded in accordance with NFPA 70-1993, Article 250. All
power distribution devices, branch wiring, and receptacles must be listed as
grounding-type devices.
When using power strips for electrical distribution, make sure that ground integrity is
maintained for each connection made. Plug each component into a reliably grounded
outlet.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your equipment,
do not disable the power cord grounding feature. This equipment is designed
to be connected to a grounded (earthed) power outlet that is easily accessible
and located as close as possible to the equipment. The grounding plug is an
important safety feature.
