WARNING: To prevent injury, access is limited
to persons who have appropriate technical
training and experience. Such persons are
expected to understand the hazards of working
within this equipment and take measures to
minimize danger to themselves or others.
CPU modules and memory modules have parts
that operate at high temperatures. Wait 2
minutes after power is removed before touching
any module. Wear an antistatic wrist strap
when working on this system.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock or damage
to the equipment: Do not disable the power
cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an
important safety feature. Plug the power cord
into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that
is easily accessible at all times. Disconnect
power by unplugging the power cord from the
electrical outlet or the workstation.
