General
safety
guidelines
Always
observe
the
following
precautions
to
reduce
the
risk
of
injury
and
property
damage.
Service
Do
not
attempt
to
service
a
product
yourself
unless
instructed
to
do
so
by
the
IBM
HelpCenter.
Use
only
an
IBM
authorized
service
provider
who
is
approved
to
repair
your
particular
product.
Note:
Some
parts
can
be
upgraded
or
replaced
by
the
customer.
These
parts
are
referred
to
as
Customer
Replaceable
Units,
or
CRUs.
IBM
expressly
identifies
CRUs
as
such,
and
provides
documentation
with
instructions
when
it
is
appropriate
for
customers
to
replace
those
parts.
You
must
closely
follow
all
instructions
when
performing
such
replacements.
Always
make
sure
that
the
power
is
turned
off
and
that
the
product
is
unplugged
from
any
power
source
before
you
attempt
the
replacement.
If
you
have
any
questions
or
concerns,
contact
the
IBM
HelpCenter.
Power
cords
and
power
adapters
Use
only
the
power
cords
and
power
adapters
supplied
by
the
product
manufacturer.
Never
wrap
a
power
cord
around
the
power
adapter
or
other
object.
Doing
so
can
stress
the
cord
in
ways
that
can
cause
the
cord
to
fray,
crack
or
crimp.
This
can
present
a
safety
hazard.
Always
route
power
cords
so
that
they
will
not
be
walked
on,
tripped
over,
or
pinched
by
objects.
Protect
the
cord
and
power
adapters
from
liquids.
For
instance,
do
not
leave
your
cord
or
power
adapter
near
sinks,
tubs,
toilets,
or
on
floors
that
are
cleaned
with
liquid
cleansers.
Liquids
can
cause
a
short
circuit,
particularly
if
the
cord
or
power
adapter
has
been
stressed
by
misuse.
Liquids
can
also
cause
gradual
corrosion
of
the
power
cord
terminals
and/or
the
connector
terminals
on
the
adapter
which
can
eventually
result
in
overheating.
Always
connect
power
cords
and
signal
cables
in
the
correct
order
and
ensure
that
all
power
cord
connectors
are
securely
and
completely
plugged
into
receptacles.
Do
not
use
any
power
adapter
that
shows
corrosion
at
the
ac
input
pins
and/or
shows
signs
of
overheating
(such
as
deformed
plastic)
at
the
ac
input
or
anywhere
on
the
power
adapter.
Do
not
use
any
power
cords
where
the
electrical
contacts
on
either
end
show
signs
of
corrosion
or
overheating
or
where
the
power
cord
appears
to
have
been
damaged
in
any
way.
Extension
cords
and
related
devices
Ensure
that
extension
cords,
surge
protectors,
uninterruptible
power
supplies,
and
power
strips
that
you
use
are
rated
to
handle
the
electrical
requirements
of
the
product.
Never
overload
these
devices.
If
power
strips
are
used,
the
load
should
not
exceed
the
power
strip
input
rating.
Consult
an
electrician
for
more
information
if
you
have
questions
about
power
loads,
power
requirements,
and
input
ratings.
Plugs
and
outlets
If
a
receptacle
(power
outlet)
that
you
intend
to
use
with
your
computer
equipment
appears
to
be
damaged
or
corroded,
do
not
use
the
outlet
until
it
is
replaced
by
a
qualified
electrician.
