Safety Cautions

Read all caution and safety statements in this document before performing any of the instructions.
The power supply in this product contains no user-serviceable parts. There may be more than one supply in this
product. Refer servicing only to qualified personnel.
Do not attempt to modify or use the supplied AC power cord if it is not the exact type required. A product with more
than one power supply will have a separate AC power cord for each supply.
The power button on the system does not turn off system AC power. To remove AC power from the system, always
unplug each AC power cord from the wall outlet or power supply.
The power cord(s) is considered the disconnect device to the main (AC) power. The socket outlet that the system
plugs into must be installed near the equipment and must be easily accessible.
SAFETY STEPS: When removing the chassis covers to access the inside of the system, follow these steps:
1. Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the system.
2. Turn off the system by pressing the power button.
3. Unplug all AC power cords from the system or from wall outlets.
4. Label and disconnect all cables connected to I/O connectors or ports on the back of the system.
5. Provide electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap attached to chassis ground of
the system—any unpainted metal surface—when handling components.
After completing the six SAFETY STEPS above, you can remove the system covers. To do this:
1. Unlock and remove the padlock from the back of the system if a padlock has been installed.
2. Remove and save all screws from the covers.
3. Remove the covers.
4. Do not operate the system with the chassis covers removed.
For proper cooling and airflow, always reinstall the chassis covers before turning on the system. Operating the
system without the covers in place can damage system parts. To install the covers:
1. Check first to make sure no loose tools or parts were left inside the system.
2. Check that cables, add-in boards, and other components are properly installed.
3. Attach the covers to the chassis with the screws removed earlier, and tighten them firmly.
4. Insert and lock the padlock to the system to prevent unauthorized access inside the system.
5. Connect all external cables and the AC power cord(s) to the system.
A microprocessor and heat sink may be hot if the system has been running. Also, there may be sharp pins and edges
on some board and chassis parts. Contact should be made with care. Consider wearing protective gloves.
Danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type
recommended by the equipment manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to manufacturer's instructions.
