Safety instructions Before starting up CAUTION! During installation and before operating the device, observe the instructions on environmental conditions for your device. If the device is brought in from a cold environment, condensation may form both inside and on the outside of the device. Wait until the device has acclimatized to room temperature and is absolutely dry before starting it up.
Page 17
Safety instructions CAUTION! Ensure that the power sockets on the device and the grounded shock- proof sockets are freely accessible. The On/Off button or the main power switch (if present) does not isolate the device from the mains power supply. To disconnect it completely from the mains power supply, unplug all network power plugs from the grounded shockproof sockets.
Page 18
Safety instructions CAUTION! Proper operation of the system (in accordance with IEC 60950-1/ EN 60950-1) is only ensured if the casing is completely assembled and the rear covers for the installation slots have been fitted (electric shock, cooling, fire protection, interference suppression). Only install system expansions that satisfy the requirements and rules governing safety and electromagnetic compatibility and those relating to telecommunication terminals.
Page 19
Safety instructions Working with CDs/DVDs and CD/DVD drives When working with devices with CD/DVD drives, these instructions must be followed. CAUTION! Only use CDs/DVDs that are in perfect condition in your server's CD/DVD drive, in order to prevent data loss, equipment damage and injury.
Page 20
Safety instructions Modules with Electrostatic-Sensitive Devices Modules with electrostatic-sensitive devices are identified by the following sticker: Figure 1: ESD label When you handle components fitted with ESDs, you must always observe the following points: Switch off the system and remove the power plugs from the power outlets before installing or removing components with ESDs.

Processors CAUTION! Follow the safety instructions in the chapter “Safety instructions”. CAUTION! Processors are modules which can react extremely sensitively to electro- static discharges and which must therefore always be handled with care. After a processor has been removed from its protective sleeve or from its socket, place it with its smooth side down on a non-conducting, antistatic surface.
Page 36
Installing a second processor Processors CAUTION! Only processors of the same type may be used on the system board. That means the number of the internal processor cores as well as the primary clock and the FSB frequency have to be the same. For dual operation, use a suitable multiprocessor operating system.
