• Read all of these instructions. Save them for future reference.
• Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the device.
•
Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the failure of
the life support equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended. Do not use this equipment in the
presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide.
• This device is designed for IT power distribution systems with up to 230V phase-to-phase voltage.
• 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 permit adequate ventilation. To ensure reliable operation and protect against
overheating, these openings must never be blocked or covered.
• The device should not 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. Use a damp cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
• 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.
• To prevent damage to your installation, ensure that all devices are properly grounded.
• The device is equipped with a 3-wire grounding -type plug. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet,
contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the purpose of the grounding-type plug. Always follow
your local/national wiring codes.
• Position system cables and power cables carefully to ensure that nothing rests on any cable. 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 ampere rating of all products used on the 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.
• 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 precautions:
> 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
• If the following conditions occur, unplug the device from the wall outlet and bring it to qualified service personnel for repair:
> The power cord or plug has become damaged or frayed
> Liquid has been spilled into the device
> The device has been exposed to rain or water
> The device has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged
> The device exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service
> The device does not operate normally when the operating instructions are followed
• Adjust only those controls that are covered in the operating instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage
that will require extensive repair work by a qualified technician.
• Do not connect the RJ11 connector marked “UPGRADE” to a public telecommunication network.
