Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit; always check the circuit.
Reliable Grounding - Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the
branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips.)
Explosion risk - There is a risk of an explosion if the lithium battery (for the CMOS clock) is replaced
with an incompatible battery type. Battery replacement should be performed only by a trained
electrician or technician who is able to understand all installation and device specifications.
Lithium battery disposal - Regulations and laws pertaining to the recycling and disposal of lithium
ion batteries vary from country to country as well as by state and local governments. European
governments have more strict regulations on the disposal of rechargeable batteries than the USA
and Canada. Check the laws and regulations where you live before disposing of lithium batteries.
To meet federal radiation exposure requirements, these devices should be installed at a minimum
distance of 9.05" (23 cm) from your body.

bracket attachment screws. Install the mounting brackets at either the front or middle of each side of the device (depending
on whether you want a front-mount or mid-mount position, and attach the appliance in the rack using standard rack screws
and washers.
1. Position the appliance so that the holes in the mounting brackets align with two mounting holes in the equipment rack
rails.
2. Insert a screw through a washer, a hole in the mounting bracket, and a hole in the rail (use two screws and washers per
bracket).
3. Tighten the screw until it is secure.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to secure the other side of the appliance to the rack.
