Server warnings and cautions

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury, electric shock, or damage to the equipment,
remove the power cord to remove power from the server. Pressing the Power On/Standby
button does not shut off system power completely. Portions of the power supply and some
internal circuitry remain active until AC power is removed.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the equipment, only
display devices that are qualified to be made of fire-retardant material must be connected to
the video connector (VGA) on the rear panel.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the
internal system components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION: To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, do not operate the server with
the access panel and the M.2 SSD compartment cover open or removed.
CAUTION: To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, do not operate the server or
the storage expansion unit unless all device bays are populated with either a component or a
blank.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to electrical components, take the appropriate anti-static
precautions before beginning any installation, removal, or replacement procedure. Improper
grounding can cause electrostatic discharge.
