Note
Replacing the battery with an incorrect type creates a danger of explosion. Replace
the battery the same or an equivalent type recommended by NETGEAR only. Dispose
of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Installing the on-board battery upside down, which reverses its polarities, creates a
risk of explosion. Take care to install the battery correctly.
4.
Connect the storage systems and their associated LAN connections only to equipment within the same
building.
5.
Slide-mounted or rail-mounted equipment is not to be used as a shelf or a work space.

Electrical Safety Precautions

Follow basic electrical safety precautions to protect yourself from harm and the ReadyNAS from damage:
Be aware of the locations of the Power switch on the chassis and the room's emergency power-off
switch, disconnection switch, or electrical outlet. If an electrical accident occurs, you can then quickly
remove power from the system.
Do not work alone when working with high-voltage components.
Always disconnect power from the system when removing or installing main system components, such
as the main board or memory modules. When disconnecting power, first power down the system with
the operating system and then unplug the power cords of all the power supply storage systems in the
system.
When working around exposed electrical circuits, make sure that another person who is familiar with
the power-off controls is nearby to switch off the power if necessary.
Use only one hand when working with powered-on electrical equipment. This is to avoid making a
complete circuit, which will cause electrical shock. Use extreme caution when using metal tools, which
can easily damage any electrical components or circuit boards that they come into contact with.
Do not use mats designed to decrease static electrical discharge as protection from electrical shock.
Instead, use rubber mats that were specifically designed as electrical insulators.
Use only power supply cords that include a grounding plug and plug them into grounded electrical
outlets.

General Safety Precautions

Follow these rules to ensure general safety:
Keep the area around the ReadyNAS clean and free of clutter.
