Safety Precautions

Safety Precautions
• Environmental Conditions — Make sure the physical environment in which the
unit resides falls within the specifications for your model as described in this
guide.
• Installing the Server or Expansion Array — During installation, make sure the
unit is always placed on a surface capable of supporting its weight.
• Connecting to the Main Power — Install the unit near an easily accessible power
source. Make sure the source is the proper voltage for your model. Place the
power cord(s) out of the way of traffic; do not place any object over the power
cord(s). If the unit is taken offline for an extended period, disconnect it from the
power source to avoid possible damage from a power surge.
• Enclosure Openings — Openings in the enclosure ensure proper airflow and
prevent overheating; do not cover these openings. Never place liquids on or near
the unit to avoid spillage; liquid entering an enclosure opening could cause fire
or electrical shock.
• Cleaning the Unit — Before cleaning the unit, be sure to disconnect all cabling. Do
not use any liquid or spray cleaning agents to clean the unit; use only a damp
sheet or cloth.
• Servicing the Unit — Never open the unit. For safety reasons, the unit should only
be opened under the guidance of qualified service personnel.
If one of the following situations arises, do not attempt a remedy; contact Adaptec
technical support for assistance before proceeding:
• The power cord or plug is damaged.
• Liquid has penetrated the server.
• The unit has been exposed to moisture.
• The unit is dropped or otherwise physically damaged.
• The unit has obvious signs of damage.
