Important Notes When Installing

Cooling-fan Intake Port and Ventilation Port

This unit performs forced cooling by means of a cooling fan. Give attention to the
following points.
• Never block the cooling-fan intake port or ventilation port in the rear panel. Doing so
may cause the temperature of the unit's interior to rise, resulting in malfunction caused
by heat.
• Clean away any buildup of dust in the intake port or ventilation port using a vacuum
cleaner or the like.

When Installing in a Rack

●
This unit can be installed in a rack. When installing the unit in a rack, to ensure efficient
cooling, give attention to the following points.
• Ensure that the location provides good air flow and ventilation.
• Never block the cooling-fan intake port or ventilation port in the rear panel.
• Avoid using the S-4000D in sealed-type rack mounts. As this type of rack does not
permit heated air within the rack to be expelled, the heated air is drawn into the
S-4000D as a result, thus preventing adequately efficient cooling.
• If the rack's rear panel is not removable, ensure that a ventilation port or exhaust fan is
provided at the top of the rack's rear panel to expel any accumulated heat.
• If the S-4000D is mounted in a portable rack, remove both the front and rear rack covers
before use to ensure that the S-4000D's front and rear panels remain unobstructed.
• When installing the unit on a rack, detach the rubber feet from the bottom of the unit.
●
Use due caution when mounting the S-4000D in a rack or other enclosure so you don't
get your fingers wedged or pinched.
