Read this section before beginning any procedure. The following text provides safety precautions to follow when installing a Sun Microsystems product.
For your protection, observe the following safety precautions when setting up your equipment:
Follow all cautions and instructions marked on the equipment.
Ensure that the voltage and frequency of your power source match the voltage and frequency inscribed on the equipment's electrical rating label.
Never push objects of any kind through openings in the equipment. Dangerous voltages may be present. Conductive foreign objects could produce a short circuit that could cause fire, electric shock, or damage to your equipment.
The following symbols may appear in this book:
Table C-1
Caution - There is risk of personal injury and equipment damage. Follow the instructions. |
On - Applies AC power to the system. |
||
Caution - Hot surface. Avoid contact. Surfaces are hot and may cause personal injury if touched. |
Off - Removes AC power from the system. |
||
Caution - Hazardous voltages are present. To reduce the risk of electric shock and danger to personal health, follow the instructions. |
Standby - The On/Standby switch is in the standby position. |
Do not make mechanical or electrical modifications to the equipment. Sun Microsystems is not responsible for regulatory compliance of a modified Sun product.
Caution - Do not block or cover the openings of your Sun product. Never place a Sun product near a radiator or heat register. Failure to follow these guidelines can cause overheating and affect the reliability of your Sun product.
Safety status of I/O connections comply to SELV requirements.
In order to conform with the German ZH1/618 ergonomic standard, an antiglare treatment to the CRT has been provided. For text processing applications, a positive mode display (black characters on a white background) is required.
Caution - Sun products are designed to work with single-phase power systems having a grounded neutral conductor. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not plug Sun products into any other type of power system. Contact your facilities manager or a qualified electrician if you are not sure what type of power is supplied to your building.
Caution - Not all power cords have the same current ratings. Household extension cords do not have overload protection and are not meant for use with computer systems. Do not use household extension cords with your Sun product.
Caution - Your Sun product is shipped with a grounding type (three-wire) power cord. To reduce the risk of electric shock, always plug the cord into a grounded power outlet.
The following caution applies only to devices with a Standby power switch:
Caution - The power switch of this product functions as a standby type device only. The power cord serves as the primary disconnect device for the system. On systems with multiple power supplies, all power cords must be unplugged to disconnect primary power from the system. Each power cord should be plugged into a grounded power outlet that is nearby the system and is readily accessible. Do not connect a power cord to a power supply that has been removed from the system chassis.
Caution - On Sun CPU boards, there is a lithium battery molded into the real-time clock, SGS No. MK48T59Y, MK48TXXB-XX, MK48T18-XXXPCZ, M48T59W-XXXPCZ, or MK48T08. Batteries are not customer replaceable parts. They may explode if mishandled. Do not dispose of the battery in fire. Do not disassemble it or attempt to recharge it.
You must remove the cover(s) of your Sun computer system unit in order to add cards, memory, or internal storage devices. Be sure to replace the cover(s) before powering up your system.
Caution - Do not operate Sun products without the cover(s) in place. Failure to take this precaution may result in personal injury and system damage.
Sun products that use laser technology comply with Class 1 laser requirements.
