To protect both yourself and the equipment, observe the following precautions when
possible:
■ Observe the precautions, warnings, and notes on handling shown on the server.
■ Use an electrostatic discharge (ESD) jack or wrist or foot strap when possible.
■ Do not block any ventilation holes.
■ Do not install the server at a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a device
that may become hot.
■ Do not install the server at a location that has a lot of dust or that is exposed to
corrosive gases or air with a high salt concentration.
■ Do not install the server at a location exposed to frequent vibrations. Install the
system on a flat and level surface.
■ Use grounding wires of class 3 or higher. Sharing any grounding wire will lead to
a malfunction.
■ Do not place cables under the equipment or have cables stretched tight. Do not
disconnect a power cord to the server while its power is on.
■ Do not place anything on the server or perform any work directly above it.
