iv Warnings and Cautions
Warnings and Cautions
These warnings and cautions apply whenever you remove the access cover to access components
inside the server. Only a technically qualified person should integrate and configure the server.
WARNINGS
The power button on the front panel DOES NOT turn off the AC power.
To remove power from server, you must unplug the AC power cord
from the wall outlet or the chassis.
Hazardous electrical conditions may be present on power, telephone,
and communication cables. Turn off the server and disconnect the power
cords, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems attached to
the server before opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment
damage can result.
Hazardous voltage, current, and energy levels are present inside the
power supply. There are no user-serviceable parts inside it; servicing
should be done by technically qualified personnel.
CAUTIONS
ESD can damage disk drives, boards, and other parts. Perform all procedures
in this document only at an ESD workstation. If one is not available, provide
ESD protection by wearing an anti-static wrist strap attached to chassis
ground any unpainted metal surface on your server when handling parts.
Always handle boards carefully. They can be extremely sensitive to ESD.
Hold boards only by their edges. Do not touch the connector contacts. After
removing a board from its protective wrapper or from the server, place the
board component side up on a grounded, static free surface. Use a conductive
foam pad if available but not the board wrapper. Do not slide board over any
surface.
For proper cooling and airflow, always install the access cover before turning
on the server. Operating it without the cover in place can damage system
parts.
