Safety Notice
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Keep the area around the Server clean and free of clutter.
Servers weigh a lot. When lifting the system, two people should lift slowly
from opposite ends with their feet spread out to distribute the weight. Always
keep your back straight and lift with your legs.
Place the chassis top cover and any system components that have been
removed away from the system or on a table so that they won’t accidentally
be stepped on.
While working on the system, do not wear loose items such as neckties and
unbuttoned shirtsleeves. They can come into contact with electrical circuits or
get pulled into a cooling fan.
Remove any jewelry or metal objects from your body, which are excellent
metal conductors and can create short circuits and harm you if they come into
contact with printed circuit boards or areas where power is present.
ESD PRECAUTIONS
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is generated by two objects with different electrical
charges coming into contact with each other. An electrical discharge is created to
neutralize this difference, which can damage electronic components and printed
circuit boards. The following measures are generally sufficient to neutralize this
difference before contact is made to protect your equipment from ESD:
Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
Keep all components and printed circuit boards (PCBs) in their antistatic bags
until ready for use.
Touch a grounded metal object before removing the board from the antistatic
You must have enough system integration knowledge before the installation，and
please carefully read our instruction while you are installing the system.

bag.
Do not let components or PCBs come into contact with your clothing, which
may retain a charge even if you are wearing a wrist strap.
Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral
chips, memory modules or contacts.
When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
Put the motherboard and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not
in use.
For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides
excellent conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting
fasteners and the motherboard.
After accessing the inside of the system, close the system back up and
secure it to the rack unit with the retention screws after ensuring that all
connections have been made.

Getting Help
If a problem arises with your system during Installation or Operation, you should
first ask your dealer for help as they have most likely configured your system.
They generally have the best grasp of your issues and the fastest response for
your symptoms. If your dealer is near your location, it is recommended that you
first bring your system to them to have it serviced instead of attempting to solve
the problem yourself.
