Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
When handling any electronic component or assembly, you must observe the following antistatic
precautions to prevent damage. An ESD kit (P/N A3024-80004) is available (or supplied with
memory additions). This kit contains one wrist strap, one conductive sheet, and one antistatic foam
pad.
• Always disconnect power from the server and wear a grounded wrist strap when working
around the server.
• Always wear a grounded wrist strap when handling printed circuit boards.
• Treat all assemblies, components and interface connections as static-sensitive.
• Avoid working in carpeted areas, and keep body movement to a minimum while removing or
installing boards, to minimize buildup of static charge.
Lithium Battery Caution
WARNING! Observe the correct polarity when changing the lithium battery. There is a danger
of explosion if battery is installed incorrectly.
Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used
batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions and local disposal requirements.
Note: Switzerland: Annex 4.10 of SR 814.013 applies to batteries.
Cabinet Safety Precautions
WARNING! Cabinets are heavy even when empty. Exercise caution when moving cabinets
whether equipment is installed in the cabinet or not. Avoid rolling cabinets on rough or uneven
surfaces or inclines greater than 10 degrees. Unloading cabinets from the pallet and movement of
cabinets should be performed by at least two people.
Slidable products are not to be extended from the cabinet while the equipment is on the shipping
pallet. The cabinet must be unloaded from the pallet and all anti-tip devices properly installed prior
to extending any slidable product.
Once installed, all anti-tip devices must remain in place to maintain stability. Only one slidable
product must be extended at a time.
Failure to follow these precautions can result in damage to equipment or injury to personnel.
