• Wear safety glasses if you are working under any conditions that might be hazardous to your eyes.
• Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe.
• Never attempt to lift an object that is too heavy for one person.
Maintain Safety with Electricity
Before working on a chassis, be sure the power cord is unplugged.
Warning
Read the
Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information
document before installing the chassis.
Follow these guidelines when working on equipment powered by electricity:
• Before beginning procedures that require access to the interior of the chassis, locate the emergency
power-off switch for the room in which you are working. Then, if an electrical accident occurs, you can
act quickly to turn off the power.
• Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist anywhere in your work space.
• Never assume that power is disconnected; always check.
• Look carefully for possible hazards in your work area, such as moist floors, ungrounded power extension
cables, frayed power cords, and missing safety grounds.
• If an electrical accident occurs:
• Use caution; do not become a victim yourself.
• Disconnect power from the chassis.
• If possible, send another person to get medical aid. Otherwise, assess the condition of the victim,
and then call for help.
• Determine whether the person needs rescue breathing or external cardiac compressions; then take
appropriate action.
• Use the chassis within its marked electrical ratings and product usage instructions.
• The Cisco Content Security Appliance x95 Series are equipped with an AC-input power supply, which
is shipped with a three-wire electrical cord with a grounding-type plug that fits into a grounding-type
power outlet only. Do not circumvent this safety feature. Equipment grounding should comply with local
and national electrical codes.
Prevent ESD Damage
ESD occurs when electronic components are improperly handled, and it can damage equipment and impair
electrical circuitry, which can result in intermittent or complete failure of your equipment.
Always follow ESD-prevention procedures when removing and replacing components. Ensure that the chassis
is electrically connected to an earth ground. Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good
