Foreword
To prevent damage to the system board, please handle it with care and follow the measures below,
which are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from static electricity discharge:
When handling the board, use a grounded wrist strap designed for static discharge elimination grounded
to a metal object before removing the board from the antistatic bag. Handle the board by its edges only;
do not touch its components, peripheral chips, memory modules or gold contacts.
When handling processor chips or memory modules, avoid touching their pins or gold edge fingers.
Return the Network Appliance system board and peripherals back into the antistatic bag when not in use
or not installed in the chassis.
Some circuitry on the system board can continue to operate even though the power is switched off.
Under no circumstances should the Lithium battery cell used to power the real-time clock be allowed to
be shorted. The battery cell may heat up under these conditions and present a burn hazard.
WARNING!
1. "CAUTION: DANGER OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS INCORRECTLY REPLACED.
REPLACE ONLY WITH SAME OR EQUIVALENT TYPE RECOMMENDED BY THE
MANUFACTURER. DISCARD USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE
MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS"
2. This guide is for technically qualified personnel who have experience installing and configuring
system boards. Disconnect the system board power supply from its power source before you
connect/disconnect cables or install/remove any system board components. Failure to do this can
result in personnel injury or equipment damage.
3. Avoid short-circuiting the lithium battery; this can cause it to superheat and cause burns if touched.
4. Do not operate the processor without a thermal solution. Damage to the processor can occur in
seconds.
5. Do not block air vents at least minimum 1/2-inch clearance required.
6. In case explosion, you should change battery with same specification.
