2.7.2 BBU Warnings and Precautions
Install or replace the BBU module only with a BBU module
supplied by your subsystem vendor. Use of battery cells
provided by another source will void our warranty.
Always dispose of discharged or used batteries in an
ecologically responsible manner. Dispose used BBUs at
authorized battery disposal sites only.
Do not use nor leave the BBU near a heat source. Heat can
melt the insulation and damage other safety features of battery
cells, possibly leading it to acid leak and result in flames or
explosion.
Do not immerse the BBU in water nor allow it to get wet. Its
protective features can be damaged. Abnormal chemical
reactions may occur, possibly causing functional defects, acid
leak, and other hazardous results.
Do not disassemble or modify the BBU. If disassembled, the
BBU could leak acid, overheat, emit smoke, burst and/or
ignite.
Do not pierce the BBU with a sharp object, strike it with a
hammer, step on it, or throw it. These actions could damage or
deform it, internal short-circuiting can occur, possibly causing
functional defects, acid leak, and other hazardous results.
If the BBU leaks, gives off a bad odor, generates heat,
becomes discolored or deformed, or in any way appears
abnormal during use, recharging or storage, immediately
remove it from the subsystem and stop using it. If this is
discovered when you first use the BBU, return it to Infortrend
or your system vendor.
2.7.3 Installation Procedure
To install a BBU into the controller module, please follow these steps:
Step 1. Prior to installing the BBU module, power off the
subsystem or restart the subsystem after installation. For
power off procedures, please refer to Section 4.4.
Step 2. Use a screwdriver to loosen the two (2) retention screws
located on both sides of the dummy plate. (See Figure 2-
