Electrical shock hazard
zNever attempt to connect the unit to any power network other
than the one for which it was intended.
zUse only the mains lead supplied.
zDo not open the housing.
zDisconnect the power supply unit from the mains power supply
and from all other devices if a fault occurs.
zOnly install the power supply and the server in a dry place pro-
tected from wheather.
zIf you are uncertain about the safe operation of the unit, shut it
down immediately and secure it to prevent any unauthorised
start-up. Safe operation is no longer possible, for example,
– if damage is visible to the unit or the cables,
– if the unit no longer operates correctly,
