Special attention should be given to the instruction symbols below.

NOTE

CAUTION

WARNING

This symbol indicates that there is an explanatory or supplementary instruction.

This symbol denotes possible hardware impairment. Upmost precaution must be taken to prevent serious hardware damage.

This symbol serves as a warning alert for potential body injury.

The user may suffer possible injury from disregard or lack of attention.

Safety Instructions

Before you commence, please attentively read the following important discretions below. All cautions and warnings on the equipment or in the manuals should be circumspectly noted and reviewed.

Always ground yourself to prevent static electricity.

請

Всегда заземляйте себя, чтобы избежать статического электричества.

Aard jezelf altijd om statische elektriciteit te voorkomen.

• Firmly ground yourself at all times when installing or assembling the internal components of the server. Most of electronic components in the server are highly sensitive to electrical static discharge.

• Use a solid grounding wrist strap and distinctively place all electronic components in static-shielded devices to prevent static. Grounding wrist straps can be purchased in any electronic supply store.

• Confirm that the power source is turned off and then disconnect the power cords from your system before performing any type of installation or manual servicing. A sudden surge of power could severely damage the sensitive electronic components.

• Do not precipitously open the system’s top cover. If you must open the cover for maintenance purposes, only a trained technician should be allowed to proceed this action. Integrated circuits on computer boards are highly sensitive to static electricity.

Before operating a board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of the system unit chassis for a couple of seconds to discharge any static electricity on your body.

Поместите сервер в стабильную среду.

Plaats de server in een stabiele omgeving.

• Place this equipment on a stable surface when installing. A small mild drop or fall could cause fatal injury to both the equipment and the person handling the equipment.

• Please keep this equipment away from humidity to prevent vast rust and disintegration.

• Carefully and accurately mount the equipment into the rack. Uneven mechanical loading may lead to hazardous consequences.

• This equipment is to be installed for operation in an environment with maximum ambient temperature below 35°C.

• Review the environment before performing any installation or servicing. Keep the equipment away from hazardous and uneven grounds.

• This server must be installed only in Restricted Access Locations.

Handle equipment with care.

請謹慎操作設備。

请谨慎操作设备。

Обращайтесь с оборудованием осторожно.

• Do not cover the openings of the system. The openings on the system are for air convection, which intentionally protect the equipment from overheating.

• Never pour any liquid into ventilation openings of the system. This could cause catastrophic fire or electrical shock.

• Ensure that the voltage of the power source is within the specification on the label when connecting the equipment to the power outlet. The current load and output power of loads must be within the specification.

• This equipment must be firmly connected to reliable grounding before usage. Pay special attention to power supplied other than direct connections, e.g. using of power strips.

• Place the power cord out of the way of foot traffic. Do not place anything over the power cord. The power cord must be rated for the product, voltage and current marked on the product’s electrical ratings label. The voltage and current rating of the cord should be greater than the voltage and current rating marked on the product.

Pay attention to hardware maintenance.

注意硬體維護

Обратите внимание на обслуживание оборудования.

Besteed aandacht aan hardware-onderhoud.

• If the equipment is not used for a long time, disconnect the equipment from mains to avoid being damaged by transient over-voltage.

• Module and drive bays must not be empty. They must have a dummy cover.

• Never open the equipment without professional assistance. For safety reasons, only qualified service personnel should open the equipment.

• If one of the following situations arise, the equipment should be checked and tested by service personnel:

1. The power cord or plug is damaged.

2. Liquid has penetrated the equipment.

3. The equipment has been exposed to moisture.

4. The equipment does not work well or will not work according to its user manual.

5. The equipment has been dropped and/or damaged.

6. The equipment has obvious signs of breakage.

7. Please disconnect this equipment from the AC outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or detergent for cleaning. The use of a moisture sheet or cloth is recommended for cleaning.

CAUTION

The equipment intended for installation should be placed in Restricted Access Location.

CAUTION

There will be a risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions. After performing any installation or servicing, make sure the enclosure is correct in position before turning on the power.

CAUTION

This unit may have more than one power supply. Disconnect all power sources before maintenance to avoid electric shock.
