Caution
Cisco Storage Series products contain hazardous materials. Only a trained operator may remove certain field-replaceable units (FRUs). Only trained service engineers are authorized to disassemble any other part of the unit, and only when the unit is powered off.
Caution
There are multiple power connections. Remove all power leads completely to isolate the power. Always use the IEC power cords supplied with Cisco Storage Series products.
Caution
The Cisco Video Surveillance Storage System units are heavy and require two people to lift them out of the packaging or slide them onto the mounting rails. Do NOT attempt to lift or mount the units by yourself.
Caution
When removing Cisco Video Surveillance Storage System units from their packaging, DO NOT lift the unit by any module handles or plastic parts on the chassis. Doing so may cause damage to the chassis or to internal components, or both. Lift the unit ONLY by the bottom edges of the chassis, using safe lifting practices.
Caution
Computer components and disk drives are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Be sure to ground any electrostatic charge from your person before touching components with your hands or with any tools. While installing the unit, use the anti-static wrist-strap shipped with the Cisco Video Surveillance Storage System units.
Please refer to the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information (RCSI) document for complete and translated warnings.
