Mechanical Safety
• Keep hands and tools clear of fans. Fans are thermostatically controlled and will turn on
automatically.
• Power supplies can reach extreme temperatures under load.
• Use caution around sheet metal components and sharp edges.
Electrical Safety
• Lethal voltages are present within the power supply and electrical boxes. Never assume that
an electrical connection or conductor is not energized. Check the circuit with a volt meter with
respect to the grounded portion of the enclosure (both AC and DC) prior to any installation or
removal procedure.
• Do not work alone under hazardous conditions.
• A licensed electrician is required to install permanently wired equipment.
• Input voltages can range up to 240 VAC. Ensure that utility power is disabled before beginning
installation or removal.
• Ensure no liquids or wet clothes contact internal components.
• Hazardous electrically live parts inside this unit are energized from batteries even when the AC
input power is disconnected from the Mini-Bay.
Recycling and Disposal Instructions
Spent or damaged batteries are considered environmentally unsafe. Always recycle used batteries
or dispose of the batteries in accordance with all federal, state and local regulations.
• Do not charge batteries in a sealed container. Each individual battery should have at least 0.5
inches of space between it and all surrounding surfaces to allow for convection cooling.
• All battery compartments must have adequate ventilation to prevent an accumulation of
potentially dangerous gas.
