Statement 1 DANGER Electrical current from power, telephone, and communication cables is hazardous. To avoid a shock hazard: • Do not connect or disconnect any cables or perform installation, maintenance, or reconfiguration of this product during an electrical storm. • Connect all power cords to a properly wired and grounded electrical outlet. • Ensure that all power cord connectors are securely and completely plugged into receptacles.
Statement 3 CAUTION: When laser products (such as CD-ROMs, DVD drives, fiber optic devices, or transmitters) are installed, note the following: • Do not remove the covers. Removing the covers of the laser product could result in exposure to hazardous laser radiation. There are no serviceable parts inside the device. • Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein might result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Statement 6 CAUTION: If you install a strain-relief bracket option over the end of the power cord that is connected to the device, you must connect the other end of the power cord to a power source that is easily accessible in case it needs to be disconnected. Statement 7 CAUTION: If the device has doors, ensure that you remove or secure the doors before moving or lifting the device to protect against personal injury. The doors will not support the weight of the device.
Statement 11 CAUTION: The following label indicates a potential heat hazard. Statement 12 DANGER Overloading a branch circuit is a potential fire hazard and a shock hazard under certain conditions.
