When Using Your Computer System
As you use your computer system, observe the following safety guidelines:
Caution: Do not operate your computer system with any cover(s) (such as computer covers, bezels,
filler brackets, and front-panel inserts) removed:
• To help avoid damaging your computer, be sure the voltage selection switch on the
power supply is set to match the alternating current (AC) power available at your
location:
— 115 volts (V)/60 hertz (Hz) in most of North and South America and some Far
Eastern countries such as Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan
— 230 V/50 Hz in most of Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East. Also be sure
your monitor and attached peripherals are electrically rated to operate with the
AC power available in your location.
• To help avoid possible damage to the server board, wait five seconds after turning off
the system before removing a component from the server board or disconnecting a
peripheral device from the computer.
• To help prevent electric shock, plug the computer and peripheral power cables into
properly grounded power sources. These cables are equipped with 3-prong plugs to
ensure proper grounding. Do not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong
from a cable. If you must use an extension cable, use a 3-wire cable with properly
grounded plugs.
• To help protect your computer system from sudden, transient increases and decreases
in electrical power, use a surge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible power
supply.
• Be sure nothing rests on your computer system’s cables and that the cables are not
located where they can be stepped on or tripped over.
• Do not spill food or liquids on your computer. If the computer gets wet, consult the
documentation that came with it.
• Do not push any objects into the openings of your computer. Doing so can cause fire
or electric shock by shorting out interior components.
• Keep your computer away from radiators and heat sources. Also, do not block cooling
vents. Avoid placing loose papers underneath your computer; do not place your
computer in a closed-in wall unit or on a rug.
When Working Inside Your Computer
Note: Do not attempt to service the computer system yourself, except as explained in this guide
and elsewhere in Intel documentation. Always follow installation and service instructions
closely.
1. Turn off your computer and any peripherals.
2. Disconnect your computer and peripherals from their power sources. Also disconnect
any telephone or telecommunications lines from the computer.
Doing so reduces the potential for personal injury or shock.
