Chapter 1. Important safety information
Some products are equipped with a three-pronged plug. This plug fits only
into a grounded electrical outlet. This is a safety feature. Do not defeat this
safety feature by trying to insert it into a non-grounded outlet. If you cannot
insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician for an approved outlet
adapter or to replace the outlet with one that enables this safety feature.
Never overload an electrical outlet. The overall system load should not
exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating. Consult an electrician for more
information if you have questions about power loads and branch circuit
ratings.
Be sure that the power outlet you are using is properly wired, easily
accessible, and located close to the equipment. Do not fully extend power
cords in a way that will stress the cords.
Be sure that the power outlet provides the correct voltage and current for the
product you are installing.
Carefully connect and disconnect the equipment from the electrical outlet.
Power supply statement
Never remove the cover on a power supply or any part that has the
following label attached.
Hazardous voltage, current, and energy levels are present inside any
component that has this label attached. There are no serviceable parts inside
these components. If you suspect a problem with one of these parts, contact a
service technician.
External devices
Do not connect or disconnect any external device cables other than USB and
1394 cables while the computer power is on; otherwise, you might damage
your computer. To avoid possible damage to attached devices, wait at least
five seconds after the computer is shut down to disconnect external devices.
