6  Quick Start Guide 

Select Site 

 WARNING 

The push-button on/off power switch on the front panel of the server 
does not turn off the AC power.  To remove AC power from the server, 
you must unplug the AC power cord from the server or wall outlet. 

 CAUTION, 

ESD 

precautions 

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage disk drives, add-in boards, and 
other parts.  This server can withstand normal levels of environmental ESD.  
However, we recommend doing all procedures in this guide only at an 
ESD-protected workstation.  If one is not available, you can provide some 
ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis 
ground of the server—any unpainted metal surface—when handling 
components. 

  CAUTION, use grounded outlet 

Make sure that the power service connection is through a properly grounded 
outlet. 

The server operates reliably within normal office environmental limits.  Select a site that meets 
these criteria: 

• 

Near a properly earthed, grounded, three-pronged power outlet 

 

In the United States and Canada: a NEMA 6-15R outlet for 200-240 V

, or NEMA 5-15P 

for the 15 amp/125 V. 

 

In other geographic areas:  a properly earthed, grounded outlet in accordance with the local 
electrical authorities and electrical code of the region. 

• 

Clean and relatively free of excess dust. 

• 

Well-ventilated and away from sources of heat, with the ventilating openings on the server kept 
free of obstructions. 

• 

Away from sources of vibration or physical shock. 

• 

Isolated from strong electromagnetic fields and noise caused by electrical devices such as 
elevators, copy machines, air conditioners, large fans, large electric motors, radio and TV 
transmitters, and high-frequency security devices. 

• 

Access space provided so the server power cords can be unplugged from the power supply or 
the wall outlet; this is the only way to remove AC power from the server. 

• 

Clearance provided for cooling and airflow.
