CAUTION: 
Hazardous energy present. Voltages with hazardous energy might cause heating when shorted with 
metal, which might result in spattered metal, burns, or both. 
Attention: 
•  Read “Installation guidelines” on page 58 to ensure that you work safely.
•  Prevent exposure to static electricity, which might lead to system halt and loss of data, by keeping static- 
sensitive components in their static-protective packages until installation, and handling these devices with 
an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding system.
•  Ensure that all adapters and other components are installed and seated correctly and that you have not 
left loose tools or parts inside the server.
•  Ensure that all internal cables are correctly routed. See Chapter 3 “Internal cable routing” on page 47.
•  If you are installing a new server cover, attach the service label to the inside of the new server cover first if 
necessary.
Note: A new server cover comes without a service label attached. If you need a service label, order it 
together with the new server cover. The service label is free of charge.
