Safety, Environmental, and
Electronic Emissions Notices
Read the following warnings before setting up or using the appliance.
Warning - Do not block air vents. A minimum 1/2-inch clearance is required.
Before you install or remove a chassis, or work near power supplies, turn off the power and
unplug the power cord.
To prevent damage to any system board, it is important to handle it with care. The following
measures are generally sufficient to protect your equipment from static electricity discharge:
n When handling the board, to use a grounded wrist strap designed for static discharge
elimination.
n Touch a grounded metal object before removing the board from the antistatic bag.
n Handle the board by its edges only. Do not touch its components, peripheral chips, memory
modules or gold contacts.
n When handling processor chips or memory modules, avoid touching their pins or gold edge
fingers.
n Restore the communications appliance system board and peripherals back into the
antistatic bag when they are not in use or not installed in the chassis. Some circuitry on the
system board can continue operating even though the power is switched off.
n Under no circumstances should the lithium battery cell used to power the real-time clock be
allowed to short. The battery cell may heat up under these conditions and present a burn
hazard.
Warning - DANGER OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS INCORRECTLY REPLACED. REPLACE ONLY WITH
SAME OR EQUIVALENT TYPE RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER. DISCARD USED BATTERIES
ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS.
n Disconnect the system board power supply from its power source before you connect or
disconnect cables or install or remove any system board components. Failure to do this can
result in personnel injury or equipment damage.
n Avoid short-circuiting the lithium battery; this can cause it to superheat and cause burns if
touched.
n Do not operate the processor without a thermal solution. Damage to the processor can
occur in seconds.
n Class 1 laser product warning - A totally enclosed laser system containing a class 1 laser.
