Statement 1071

To prevent the system from overheating, do not operate it in an area that exceeds the maximum
recommended ambient temperature of: 35° C (95° F).
Statement 1047

disconnecting device.
Statement 1019
Warning
This product relies on the building’s installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure
that the protective device is rated not greater than: 250 V, 15 A.
Statement 1005
Warning
Installation of the equipment must comply with local and national electrical codes.
Statement 1074
Warning
This unit is intended for installation in restricted access areas. A restricted access area can be
accessed only through the use of a special tool, lock, and key, or other means of security.
Statement 1017
Warning
To ensure proper airflow it is necessary to rack the servers using rail kits. Physically placing the units on
top of one another or “stacking” without the use of the rail kits blocks the air vents on top of the servers,
which could result in overheating, higher fan speeds, and higher power consumption. We recommend that
you mount your servers on rail kits when you are installing them into the rack because these rails provide
the minimal spacing required between the servers. No additional spacing between the servers is required
when you mount the units using rail kits.
