Grounding Checks

This product must only be connected to a power source that has a safety electrical earth
connection.
Warning: If more than one product is fitted in a rack, the earth connection to the rack is even more
important, because the rack will then have a high "EARTH LEAKAGE CURRENT"
("TOUCH CURRENT").
The earth connection to the rack must be checked before switching on, by an electrical
engineer who is qualified to the appropriate local and National standards to perform the
check.

Removing or Installing the PCI Riser Assembly

Always operate your storage system with the PCI riser assembly in place. The PCI riser
assembly is required for proper airflow within the chassis. You will need to remove the
PCI riser assembly from the chassis to replace the PCI riser connectors, or to add or
remove a PCI add-in card.
Warning: This module is not "hot-pluggable". Prior to removing the riser card module from the
enclosure, disconnect the power from the power supply by either turning off the main
switch (if present) or by physically removing the power source.

Blanking Plates

A blanking plate must be fitted into any vacant PCI card slots.
