Temperature and Ventilation

Caution:

Temperature: The temperature, in which the server operates when installed in an

equipment rack, must not go below 5°C (41°F) or rise above 35°C (95°F). Extreme

fluctuations in temperature can cause a variety of problems in your server.

Caution:

Ventilation: The equipment rack must provide sufficient airflow to the front of the

server to maintain proper cooling. The rack must also include ventilation sufficient to

exhaust a maximum of 1023 BTUs (British Thermal Units) per hour for the server. The

rack selected and the ventilation provided must be suitable to the environment in which

the server will be used.

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, you must 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.

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.

wrist strap attached to chassis ground of the system—any unpainted metal

surface—when handling components.
