3 General Precautions and Electrical
Considerations
Read all these instructions before setting up and using your system!
Follow all warnings and instructions noted on the computer and in the operating instructions.
Save these instructions for future reference.
Use of a non-interruptible power supply is strongly recommended.
Do not set up or use this device near water. Electrical shock and damage may occur if water shorts out high
voltage parts.
Do not block the enclosure vents or place this device in a built-in installation unless proper ventilation is
provided. Blocking enclosure vent could cause installed components to overheat and operate unreliably.
Avoid setting the device on a bed, sofa, carpet, pillow or other soft surfaces that can cover the enclosure vents.
Never set the device on a radiator, heat register, or other heat source.
Never insert foreign objects into the enclosure slots. Fire, electrical shock, and/or damage may occur if such
objects short out high voltage parts.
Operate the device using the correct type of AC power source, as specified on the label (typically, 115V/60Hz
in the US and Canada; 230V/50Hz in the UK and Europe).
Plug the power cord into a properly grounded electrical outlet to prevent electrical shock.
Do not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong.
Replace any obsolete outlet. If you use an extension cord with the system, use a 3-wire extension cord and
make sure that the extension cord’s ampere rating is sufficient to handle the load of all the equipment plugged
into it.
Use an approved surge suppresser to protect the equipment from erratic electricity supply.
Install new or replace failed disk drives with drives that are listed on the Plasmon approved drive list ONLY.
Check that the total load of all devices attached to one cord or one outlet never exceeds 15 amperes. The
wattage rating for most devices is listed on the label for the product.
Do not set any object on the power cord. Situate the power cord away from traffic areas so it will not be
stepped on or tripped over.
Prevent static electricity from permanently damaging your electronic components. Observe the proper
Electro Static Discharge (ESD) measures when handling components such as drives.
Do not attempt to service this device yourself except as explained in the manual.
The maximum operating ambient temperature is 40˚ Celsius.
The rear of the unit should have at least 300mm clearance from any other objects for ventilation.
The power supply cord provides the safety earth connection. The power supply cord should be connected to
an outlet that is grounded in accordance with the National Electric Code (NEC).
Contact service personnel for assistance if:
• A power cable or plug is frayed or damaged.
