– DVD-ROM laser: CAUTION - This server may have come equipped with a DVD-ROM drive.
To prevent direct exposure to the laser beam and hazardous radiation exposure, do not
open the enclosure or use the unit in any unconventional way.
1.5 General Safety Precautions
– Keep the area around the chassis clean and free of clutter.
– Place the chassis top cover and any system components that have been removed away
from the system or on a table so that they won’t accidentally be stepped on.
– While working on the system, do not wear loose clothing such as neckties and
unbuttoned shirt sleeves, which can come into contact with electrical circuits or be
pulled into a cooling fan.
– Remove any jewelry or metal objects from your body, which are excellent metal
conductors that can create short circuits and harm you if they come into contact with
printed circuit boards or areas where power is present.
– After accessing the inside of the system, close the system back up and secure it to the
rack unit with the retention screws after ensuring that all connections have been made.
1.6 System Safety
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is generated by two objects with different electrical charges
coming into contact with each other. An electrical discharge is created to neutralize this
difference, which can damage electronic components and printed circuit boards. The
following measures are generally sufficient to neutralize this difference before contact is
made to protect your equipment from ESD:
– Do not use mats designed to decrease electrostatic discharge as protection from
electrical shock. Instead, use rubber mats that have been specifically designed as
electrical insulators.
– Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
– Keep all components and printed circuit boards (PCBs) in their antistatic bags until ready
for use.
– Touch a grounded metal object before removing any board from its antistatic bag.
– Do not let components or PCBs come into contact with your clothing, which may retain a
charge even if you are wearing a wrist strap.
– Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips, memory
modules or contacts.
– When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
– Put the serverboard and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not in use.
– For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent
conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and the
serverboard.
