Safety and Cautions
Safety Agency Compliance Statements
Read this section before beginning any procedure. The
following text provides safety precautions to follow when
installing a Sun Microsystems product.
Safety Precautions
For your protection, observe the following safety precautions
when setting up your equipment:
• Follow all cautions and instructions marked on equipment.
• Ensure that the voltage and frequency of your power source
match the voltage and frequency inscribed on the
equipment's electrical rating label.
• Never push objects of any kind through openings in the
equipment. Dangerous voltages may be present. Conductive
foreign objects could produce a short circuit that could cause
fire, electric shock, or damage to your equipment.
Symbols
The following symbols may appear in this book:
Caution – There is risk of personal injury and
!
equipment damage. Follow the instructions.
Caution – Hot surface. Avoid contact. Surfaces are hot
and may cause personal injury if touched.

Modifications to Equipment
Do not make mechanical or electrical modifications to the
equipment. Sun Microsystems is not responsible for
regulatory compliance of a modified Sun product.
Placement of a Sun Product
Caution – Do not block or cover the openings of your
!
Sun product. Never place a Sun product near a
radiator or heat register. Failure to follow these
guidelines can cause overheating and affect the
reliability of your Sun product.
Caution – The workplace-dependent noise level
!
defined in DIN 45 635 Part 1000 must be 70Db(A) or
less.
SELV Compliance
Safety status of I/O connections comply to SELV
requirements.
Power Cord Connection
Caution – Sun products are designed to work with
single-phase power systems having a grounded
neutral conductor. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
do not plug Sun products into any other type of power
system. Contact your facilities manager or a qualified
electrician if you are not sure what type of power is
supplied to your building.
Caution – Not all power cords have the same current
ratings. Household extension cords do not have
overload protection and are not meant for use with
computer systems. Do not use household extension
cords with your Sun product.
Caution – Your Sun product is shipped with a
grounding type (three-wire) power cord. To reduce the
risk of electric shock, always plug the cord into a
grounded power outlet.
Lithium Battery
Caution – On Sun CPU boards, there is a lithium
!
battery molded into the real-time clock, SGS No.
MK48T59Y, MK48TXXB-XX, MK48T18-XXXPCZ,
M48T59W-XXXPCZ, or MK48T08. Batteries are not
customer replaceable parts. They may explode if
mishandled. Do not dispose of the battery in fire. Do
not disassemble it or attempt to recharge it.
