Safety, Environmental, and Electronic Emissions Notices

Warning - Do not block air vents with the exception of the installed approved appliance rails. A minimum 1/2-inch (13mm) clearance is required.

Important - We recommend that only experienced personnel install or remove Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) in an appliance. Installing or removing an FRU (NIC, HDD, Memory DIMM, Power Supply, Fan…) incorrectly can permanently damage the appliance.

Warning - Before you install or remove an FRU turn off the platform power and unplug the power cord. Certain appliances may support live hot-swap of certain FRUs (HDD, Power Supply) when redundancy is supported. See later sections of this document or the FRU documents.

Warning - Class 1M laser radiation when open. Do not view directly with optical instruments.

To prevent damage to any FRUs, it is important to handle it with care. The following measures are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from static electricity discharge:

• When handling the FRU, use a grounded wrist strap designed for static discharge elimination.
• Handle the FRU by its edges only. Do not touch its components, peripheral chips, memory modules, pins or gold edge contacts.
• Restore the FRUs back into the antistatic bag when they are not in use or not installed in the chassis.
• Only operate the appliance within the allowed operating temperature specifications.

Rack Mount Instructions

The following or similar rack-mount instructions are included with the installation instructions:

1. 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 specified by the manufacturer.
2. 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.
3. Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
4. 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 over current protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
5. Reliable Earth Ground Connection - Reliable earth ground connections 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).
