environmentally safe recycling. This product and its electronic accessories should not be 
mixed with other commercial wastes for disposal.

Strato Pi Base contains a small non rechargeable manganese dioxide lithium coin battery.

In the Strato Pi Base server, the battery is not accessible from the outside. You should first 
remove the case top body to gain access to the Strato Pi Base circuit board. Always 
remove the battery before disposing of this product.

Installation and use restrictions

Standards and regulations

The design and the setting up of electrical systems must be performed according to the 
relevant standards, guidelines, specifications and regulations of the relevant country. The 
installation, configuration and programming of the devices must be carried out by trained 
personnel.

The installation and wiring of connected devices must be performed according to the 
recommendations of the manufacturers (reported on the specific data sheet of the product) 
and according to the applicable standards.

All the relevant safety regulations, e.g. accident prevention regulations, law on technical 
work equipment, must also be observed.

Safety instructions
