 When the server is powered on, heat sinks and the surfaces of certain IC devices may
be hot. Do not touch them. Check whether the fans are functioning properly.
Electrical Safety
 Before installing or removing signal cables, ensure that the power cables for the system
unit and all attached devices are unplugged.
 To prevent electric shock hazard, disconnect the power cable from the electrical outlet
before relocating the system.
 When adding or removing any additional device to or from the system, ensure that the
power cables for those devices are unplugged before the signal cables are connected.
If possible, disconnect all power cables from the existing system before you add a
device.

About This Manual
1230B0033901 iv
 Use one hand, when possible, to connect or disconnect signal cables to prevent a
possible shock from touching two surfaces with different electrical potentials.
 This product is equipped with a three-wire power cable and plug for user safety. Use the
power cable with a properly grounded electrical outlet to avoid electric shock.
Boards, adapters, and disk drives are sensitive to static electricity discharge. These devices
are wrapped in antistatic bags to prevent this damage. Take the following precautions:
 If you have an antistatic wrist strap available, use it while handling the device.
 Do not remove the device from the antistatic bag until you are ready to install the device
in the system unit.
 With the device still in its antistatic bag, touch it to a metal frame of the system.
 Grasp cards and boards by the edges. Hold drives by the frame. Avoid touching the
solder joints or pins.
 If you need to lay the device down while it is out of the antistatic bag, lay it on the
antistatic bag. Before picking it up again, touch the antistatic bag and the metal frame of
the system unit at the same time.
 Handle the devices carefully to prevent permanent damage.
Battery Replacement Safety
This server is provided with an internal Lithium battery or battery pack. There is a danger of
explosion and risk of personal injury if the battery is incorrectly replaced or mistreated.
For more information about battery replacement or proper disposal, contact an authorized
reseller or your authorized service provider.
This server contains an internal Lithium Manganese Dioxide, or a Vanadium Pentoxide, or an
alkaline battery pack. There is risk of fire and burns if the battery pack is not handled properly.

Table i Product Safety Requirements
IEC 60950-1 Safety of Information Technology Equipment
EN 60950-1 Safety of Information Technology Equipment Including Electrical Business
Equipment, European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization
(CENELEC)
UL 60950-1 Safety of Information Technology Equipment

Product EMC Compliance
This product has been tested and verified to comply with the following electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC) regulations.
Communications Commission Notice
Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and Regulations has
established Radio Frequency (RF) emission limits to provide an interference-free radio
frequency spectrum. Many electronic devices, including computers, generate RF energy
incidental to their intended function and are, therefore, covered by these rules. These rules
place computers and related peripheral devices into two classes, A and B, depending upon
their intended installation. Class A devices are those that may reasonably be expected to be
installed in a business or commercial environment. Class B devices are those that may

1230B0033901 vii
reasonably be expected to be installed in a residential environment (for example, personal
computers). The FCC requires devices in both classes to bear a label indicating the
interference potential of the device, as well as additional operating instructions for the user.
The rating label on the device shows which class (A or B) the equipment falls into. Class A
devices do not have an FCC logo or FCC ID on the label. Class B devices have an FCC logo
or FCC ID on the label. Once the class of the device is determined, refer to the following
corresponding statement.
Class A Equipment
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is
likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the
interference at personal expense.
Declaration of Conformity for Products Marked with the FCC Logo—United States Only
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules Operation and is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
For questions regarding your product, please contact the supplier.
To identify this product, refer to the Part, Series, or Model number found on the product.
European Union Notice
Products with the CE Marking comply with both the EMC Directive (89/336/EEC) and the
Low-Voltage Directive (73/23/EEC) issued by the Commission of the European Community.
Compliance with these directives implies conformity to the following European Norms (in
brackets are the equivalent international standards):
Table ii European Union EMC Requirements
EN55022 (CISPR 22) Electromagnetic Interference
EN55024 (IEC61000-4-2,3,4,5,6,8,11) Electromagnetic Immunity
