following repair or maintenance to verify proper operation.
20. ESD Precaution - Take all normal electrostatic discharge
precautions to avoid component damage during installation and
operation.
21. For 230 VAC Devices Only - When the disconnect device is
not incorporated in the equipment or when the plug on the power
supply is intended to serve as the disconnect device, follow the
guidelines below:
a) For permanently connected 230 VAC units, a readily
accessible disconnect device must be incorporated into the
site wiring.
b) For 230 VAC units with a plug, the outlet must be installed
near the unit and be easily accessible.
21. Lithium Batteries Only:
WARNING
Fire and burn hazard. Do not recharge, disassemble,
heat above 212°F or incinerate. Keep battery out of
reach of children and in original package until ready
to use. Dispose of used batteries promptly.
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by incorrect
type. Dispose of used batteries according to the
instructions.

Important Safeguards – Indoor Use
(Cont)
22. For Rack-Mounted Units Only – The following precautions
apply to all rack-mounted units.
a) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-
unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the
rack environment may be greater than room ambient.
Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the
equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum
ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
b) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack
should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe
operation of the equipment is not compromised.
c) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack
should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved
due to uneven mechanical loading.
d) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the
connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the
effect that overloading of the circuits might have on
overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate
consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be
used when addressing this concern.
e) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted
equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should
be given to supply connections other than direct connections
to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).

CAUTION
The power supply cord is used as the main disconnect device, ensure that the socket-outlet is
located/installed near the equipment and is easily accessible.
ATTENTIONN
Le cordon d`alimentation est utillsé comme interrupteur général. La prise de courant doit être
située ou installée à proximité du matériel et être facile d`accès
