Always observe the following warnings and precautions:
• Perform all maintenance by following the procedures in this
manual.
• Follow all cautions and warnings in the procedures.
• Use sound safety practices when operating or repairing the
unit.
• Use caution when troubleshooting a unit that has voltages
present. Turn off power to the unit before servicing it.
• Ensure that the internal temperature of the rack or cabinet
does not exceed the limits defined for the drive when the drive
is mounted in an equipment rack or cabinet. When units are
stacked vertically, pay special attention to the top where tem-
peratures are usually highest.
• Follow the precautions listed above in “Electrostatic discharge
protection.”
• Do not remove any circuit boards from the drive chassis.

defective. Removal of circuit boards by personnel not perform-

VDE0805 and EN60950.
