Safety Instructions
• Read all of these instructions. Save them for future reference.
• Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the device.
• Do not place the device on any unstable surface (cart, stand, table, etc.). If the device
falls, serious damage will result.
• Do not use the device near water.
• Do not place the device near, or over, radiators or heat registers. The device cabinet is
provided with slots and openings to allow for adequate ventilation. To ensure reliable
operation, and to protect against overheating, these openings must never be blocked or
covered.
• The device should never be placed on a soft surface (bed, sofa, rug, etc.) as this will block
its ventilation openings. Likewise, the device should not be placed in a built-in enclosure
unless adequate ventilation has been provided.
• Never spill liquid of any kind on the device.
• Unplug the device from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol
cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
• The device should be operated from the type of power source indicated on the marking
label. If you are not sure of the type of power available, consult your dealer or local
power company.
• Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord or cables. Route the power cord and
cables so that they cannot be stepped on or tripped over.
• If an extension cord is used with this device make sure that the total of the ampere ratings
of all products used on this cord does not exceed the extension cord ampere rating. Make
sure that the total of all products plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed 15 amperes.
• Position system cables and power cables carefully; be sure that nothing rests on any cables.
• To help protect your system from sudden transient increases and decreases in electrical
power, it is recommended that you plug your devices into a Tripp Lite Surge Suppressor,
Line Conditioner, or Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).
• When connecting or disconnecting power to hot-pluggable power supplies, observe the
following guidelines:
—Install the power supply before connecting the power cable to the power supply.
—Unplug the power cable before removing the power supply.
—If the system has multiple sources of power, disconnect power from the system
by unplugging all power cables from the power supplies.
• Never push objects of any kind into or through cabinet slots. They may touch dangerous
voltage points or short out parts resulting in a risk of fire or electrical shock.
• Do not attempt to service the device yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
