Ground the equipment
To minimize shock hazard, the equipment chassis and enclosure must be properly grounded. If the
equipment is supplied with a three-conductor AC power cable, the power cable must be plugged into
an approved three-contact electrical outlet. The grounding wire must be reliably connected to an
electrical ground (safety ground) at the power outlet. The power jack and mating plug of the power
cable must meet International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) safety standards and local
electrical regulatory codes.
Do not operate in an explosive atmosphere
Do not operate the equipment in any explosive atmosphere such as in the presence of flammable
gases or fumes. Operation of any electrical equipment in such an environment could result in an
explosion and cause injury or damage.
Keep away from live circuits inside the equipment
Operations and maintenance personnel are
not
authorized to remove chassis equipment covers.
Only Factory Authorized Service Personnel or other qualified service personnel designated by
Avaya may remove equipment covers for internal subassembly or component replacement or any
internal adjustment. Service personnel must not replace components with power cable connected
unless explicitly directed to do so, such as when replacing a disk drive or power supply. Under
certain conditions, dangerous voltages might exist even with the power cable removed. To avoid
injuries, such personnel must always disconnect power and discharge circuits before touching
components.
Observe all cautions and warnings in the manual
Warnings, such as the following example, precede potentially dangerous procedures throughout this
manual. Instructions contained in the warnings must be followed. You should also employ all other
safety precautions that you deem necessary for the operation of the equipment in your operating
environment.
Warning:
To prevent serious injury or death from dangerous voltages, use extreme caution when
handling, testing, and performing maintenance on this equipment and its components.
