ESD precautions
CAUTION
To protect the serial port from damage, keep the cover on the port when not in use.
CAUTION
If you do not install a module or a power supply in a slot, you must keep the slot filler panel in
place. If you run the chassis with an uncovered slot, the system will overheat.
ESD precautions
CAUTION
Before plugging a cable into to any port, be sure to discharge the voltage stored on the cable
by touching the electrical contacts to ground surface.
CAUTION
Static electricity can damage the chassis and other electronic devices. To avoid damage, keep
static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages until you are ready to install them.
CAUTION
Wear a wrist grounding strap connected to the chassis ground (if the device is plugged in) or
to a bench ground.
DANGER
For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 megaohm resistor.
Power precautions
DANGER
Make sure that the power source circuits are properly grounded, then use the power cord
supplied with the device to connect it to the power source.
DANGER
If the installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the device, make
sure you use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the
regulations for power cords in your country. The mark is your assurance that the power cord
can be used safely with the device.
DANGER
This device might have more than one power cord. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
disconnect all power cords before servicing.
DANGER
Remove both power cords before servicing.
