WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the internal
system components to cool before touching them.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
•
Never reach inside the chassis while the system is powered up.
•
Perform service on system components only as instructed in the user documentation.
CAUTION: Protect the server from power fluctuations and temporary interruptions with a regulating
UPS. This device protects the hardware from damage caused by power surges and voltage spikes and
keeps the server in operation during a power failure.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to electrical components, properly ground the server before beginning
any installation procedure. Improper grounding can cause electrostatic discharge.
CAUTION: To avoid data loss, Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends that you back up all server data
before installing or removing a hardware option, or performing a server maintenance or troubleshooting
procedure.
CAUTION: To prevent improper airflow and insufficient cooling that can lead to thermal damage,
observe the following:
•
Do not operate the chassis without the access panel, baffles, or blanks installed.
•
Do not operate the server without the baffles, expansion slot covers, or blanks installed.
Electrostatic discharge
Be aware of the precautions you must follow when setting up the system or handling components. A
discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage system boards or other static-
sensitive devices. This type of damage may reduce the life expectancy of the system or component.
To prevent electrostatic damage:
•
Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers.
•
Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free workstations.
•
Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their containers.
•
Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
•
Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly. Use one or more
of the following methods when handling or installing electrostatic-sensitive parts:
◦
Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded workstation or computer chassis. Wrist
straps are flexible straps with a minimum of 1 megohm ±10 percent resistance in the ground cords. To
provide proper ground, wear the strap snug against the skin.
◦
Use heel straps, toe straps, or boot straps at standing workstations. Wear the straps on both feet when
standing on conductive floors or dissipating floor mats.
◦
Use conductive field service tools.
◦
Use a portable field service kit with a folding static-dissipating work mat.
