Caution: Precautions for Servers, Storage Systems, and Appliances
(Safety Precautions, continued)
Observe the following additional safety guidelines for your system:
• Unless your installation and/or troubleshooting documentation
specifically allows it, do not remove enclosure covers, attempt to
override the safety interlocks, or access any components inside the
system. Depending on your system, installation and repairs may be
done only by individuals who are qualified to service your system or
storage system equipment and trained to deal with products capable of
producing hazardous energy levels.
• Move products with care; ensure that all casters and/or stabilizers are
firmly connected to the system or storage system. Avoid sudden stops
and uneven surfaces.
Caution: Precautions for Rack-Mountable Products (Safety
Precautions, continued)
Observe the following precautions for rack stability and safety. Also refer to
the rack installation documentation accompanying the system and the rack
for specific caution statements and procedures.
Servers, storage systems, and appliances are considered to be components in
a rack. Thus, "component" refers to any server, storage system, or appliance,
as well as to various peripherals or supporting hardware.
CAUTION: Installing Dell system components in a Dell rack
without the front and side stabilizers installed could cause the
rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury under
certain circumstances. Therefore, always install the stabilizers
before installing components in the rack.
After installing system/components in a rack, never pull more
than one component out of the rack on its slide assemblies at one
time. The weight of more than one extended component could
cause the rack to tip over and may result in serious injury.
NOTE: Your Dell system is safety-certified as a free-standing unit and as a
component for use in a Dell rack cabinet using the Dell customer rack kit. The
installation of your system and rack kit in any non-Dell rack cabinet has not
been approved by any safety agencies. It is your responsibility to have the final
combination of system and rack kit in a non-Dell rack cabinet evaluated for
suitability by a certified safety agency. Dell disclaims all liability and
warranties in connection with such combinations.
