Removal and replacement procedures Required tools Some procedures may require the following tools: • T-25 Torx screwdriver (for screws located inside the front panel quick-release ears) • T-10/T-15/T-20 Torx screwdriver • Flathead screwdriver (for replacing the system battery) Safety considerations Before performing service procedures, review all the safety information.
This symbol on an RJ-45 receptacle indicates a network interface connection. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not plug telephone or telecommunications connectors into this receptacle. This symbol indicates the presence of a hot surface or hot component. If this surface is contacted, the potential for injury exists.
Rack warnings WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure that: • The leveling jacks are extended to the floor. • The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling jacks. • The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single-rack installation.
