Also be sure that attached devices are electrically rated to operate with the power
available in your location.
Safety Instructions (continued)
•
Use only approved power cable(s). If you have not been provided with a power
cable for your system or for any AC-powered option intended for your system,
purchase a power cable that is approved for use in your country. The power cable
must be rated for the product and for the voltage and current marked on the
product's electrical ratings label. The voltage and current rating of the cable
should be greater than the ratings marked on the product.
•
To help prevent an electric shock, plug the system and peripheral power cables
into properly grounded electrical outlets. These cables are equipped with three-
prong plugs to help ensure proper grounding. Do not use adapter plugs or remove
the grounding prong from a cable. If you must use an extension cable, use a 3-
wire cable with properly grounded plugs.
•
Observe extension cable and power strip ratings. Make sure that the total ampere
rating of all products plugged into the extension cable or power strip does not
exceed 80 percent of the ampere ratings limit for the extension cable or power
strip.
•
To help protect your system from sudden, transient increases and decreases in
electrical power, use a surge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible power
supply (UPS).
•
Position system cables and power cables carefully; route cables so that they
cannot be stepped on or tripped over. Be sure that nothing rests on any cables.
•
Do not modify power cables or plugs. Consult a licensed electrician or your power
company for site modifications. Always follow your local/national wiring rules.
•
When connecting or disconnecting power to hot-pluggable power supplies, if
offered with your system, observe the following guidelines:
– Install the power supply before connecting the power cable to the power supply.
– Unplug the power cable before removing the power supply.
– If the system has multiple sources of power, disconnect power from the system
by
unplugging all power cables from the power supplies.
•
Move products with care; ensure that all casters and/or stabilizers are firmly
connected to the system. Avoid sudden stops and uneven surfaces.
