Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge - D-Link DGS-1016D User Manual

D-Link DGS-1016D/DGS-1024D Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet Switch
Safety Instructions (continued)
Always load the rack from the bottom up, and load the heaviest item in the rack first.
Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a component from the rack.
Use caution when pressing the component rail release latches and sliding a component into or
out of a rack; the slide rails can pinch your fingers.
After a component is inserted into the rack, carefully extend the rail into a locking position,
and then slide the component into the rack.
Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack. The total rack
load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating.
Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.
Do not step on or stand on any component when servicing other components in a rack.
NOTE:
A qualified electrician must perform all
connections to DC power and to safety grounds. All
electrical wiring must comply with applicable local or
national codes and practices.
CAUTION: Never defeat the ground conductor or operate
the equipment in the absence of a suitably installed ground
conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection
authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable
grounding is available.
CAUTION: The system chassis must be positively
grounded to the rack cabinet frame. Do not attempt to
connect power to the system until grounding cables are
connected. Completed power and safety ground wiring
must be inspected by a qualified electrical inspector. An
energy hazard will exist if the safety ground cable is omitted
or disconnected.

Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge

Static electricity can harm delicate components inside your system. To prevent static damage,
discharge static electricity from your body before you touch any of the electronic
components, such as the microprocessor. You can do so by periodically touching an
unpainted metal surface on the chassis.
