Lifting

For Pico servers mounted in rack trays follow the online user guide.

Rack Stability Precautions

Do not place objects on equipment projecting from a rack (e.g. do not use as a shelf).

Only slide out one piece of equipment from the rack at a time.

Connecting External Equipment

To ensure best performance from the server and compliance with relevant EMC regulations, this equipment should only be used with high-quality shielded data and signal cables.

Only equipment and accessories approved to IEC 60950-1 and SELV circuits may be connected to the server. All equipment and accessories shall comply to the relevant standard for the server’s port to which it is connected.

Cleaning

External casing and the front panel should be carefully wiped with a soft cloth and antistatic solution.
