Before beginning any procedure, read the instructions and cautions in this
section. This information explains how to work safely when servicing a Sun
Microsystems® product.
For your protection, observe the following safety precautions when servicing
the equipment:
-
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the equipment.
-
Ensure that the voltage and frequency of your power source matches 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.

Modification to Equipment
Do not make mechanical or electrical modifications to the equipment. Sun
Microsystems, Inc. is not responsible for regulatory compliance of a modified
Sun product.
2.1.2
Placement of a Sun Product
Caution - To ensure reliable operation of your Sun product and to protect it

Power Cord Connection
Warning - Sun products are designed to work with single-phase power systems
having a grounded neutral conductor. To reduce the risk of electrical 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.
Warning - Not all power cords have the same current ratings. Household
extension cords do not have overload protection. Do not use household
extension cords with your Sun product.
Warning - Your Sun product is shipped with a grounding type (3-wire) power
cord. To reduce the risk of electric shock, always plug the cord into a grounded
power outlet.

The hard disk drives contain electronic components that are
extremely sensitive to static electricity. Ordinary amounts of static from your
clothes or work environment can destroy the components.
