Do not install a unit in a rack where the internal rack ambient
temperatures will exceed the manufacturer's recommended ambient
temperature for all your rack-mounted devices.

that air flow is not blocked or reduced on any side, front, or back of a unit
used for air flow through the unit.
v
Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the
supply circuit so that overloading of the circuits does not compromise the
supply wiring or overcurrent protection. To provide the correct power
connection to a rack, refer to the rating labels located on the equipment in
the rack to determine the total power requirement of the supply circuit.
v
(For sliding drawers) Do not pull out or install any drawer or feature if the
rack stabilizer brackets are not attached to the rack. Do not pull out more
than one drawer at a time. The rack might become unstable if you pull out
more than one drawer at a time.
v (For fixed drawers) This drawer is a fixed drawer and must not be moved
for servicing unless specified by the manufacturer. Attempting to move the
drawer partially or completely out of the rack might cause the rack to
become unstable or cause the drawer to fall out of the rack.
