Server warnings and cautions
WARNING:
This server is heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment:
• Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual material
handling.
• Get help to lift and stabilize the product during installation or removal, especially when the product is
not fastened to the rails. Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends that a minimum of two people are
required for all rack server installations. If the server is installed higher than chest level, a third
person may be required to help align the server.
• Use caution when installing the server in or removing the server from the rack; it is unstable when
not fastened to the rails.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the internal system
components to cool before touching them.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury, electric shock, or damage to the equipment, remove the power
cord to remove power from the server. The front panel Power On/Standby button does not completely
shut off system power. Portions of the power supply and some internal circuitry remain active until
AC/DC power is removed.
CAUTION:
Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary interruptions with a regulating uninterruptible
power supply. This device protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges and voltage
spikes and keeps the system in operation during a power failure.
CAUTION:
Do not operate the server for long periods with the access panel open or removed. Operating the server
in this manner results in improper airflow and improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage.
Rack warnings
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure that:
• The leveling jacks are extended to the floor.
• The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks.
• The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single-rack installation.
• The racks are coupled together in multiple-rack installations.
• Only one component is extended at a time. A rack may become unstable if more than one
component is extended for any reason.
