WARNING:

To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the

internal system components to cool before touching them.

CAUTION:

To prevent possible server blade malfunction and damage to the equipment,

multiprocessor configurations must contain processors with the same part number.

CAUTION:

The heatsink thermal interface media is not reusable and must be replaced if the

heatsink is removed from the processor after it has been installed.

CAUTION:

To prevent possible server blade overheating, always populate processor socket 2

with a processor and a heatsink or a processor socket cover and a heatsink blank.

IMPORTANT:

Processor socket 1 must be populated at all times or the server blade does not

function.

IMPORTANT:

When an Intel Xeon E5-2643 processor or an Intel Xeon E5-2690 processor is

installed, always install the high performance heatsink.
