Water and wet locations Keep your Mac Pro away from
sources of liquid and/or humidity, such as drinks, washbasins,
bathtubs, and shower stalls. Protect your Mac Pro from
moisture, dampness or wet weather, such as rain, snow,
and fog.
Power Unplug the power cord (by pulling the plug, not
the cord) and disconnect all connected cables if any of the
following conditions exist:

You want to add memory or SSDs

The power cord or plug becomes frayed or otherwise
damaged

You spill something into or onto the housing

Your Mac Pro is exposed to rain or excess moisture

Your Mac Pro has been dropped or the housing has
been damaged

You suspect that your Mac Pro needs service or repair

You want to clean the housing (use only the
recommended procedure described later in this
document)

Important: The only way to turn off power completely is to
unplug the power cord. Make sure at least one end of the
power cord is within easy reach so that you can unplug your
Mac Pro when you need to.
Electrical rating

Voltage: 100 to 240 V AC

Current: 6 A, maximum

Frequency: 50 to 60 Hz

WARNING: Your AC cord has a three-wire grounding plug
(a plug that has a third grounding pin). This plug fits only
a grounded AC outlet. If you are unable to insert the plug
into a grounded AC outlet, contact a licensed electrician
to replace it with a properly grounded AC outlet.

Hearing loss Listening to sound at high volumes may
damage your hearing. Background noise, as well as continued
exposure to high-volume levels, can make sounds seem
quieter than they actually are. Use only compatible earbuds,
headphones, or headsets with your Mac Pro. Turn on the audio
and check the volume before inserting anything into your ear.
For more information about hearing loss, see
www.apple.com/sound.

WARNING: The headphone port (f) and the line out port
(-) are located next to each other. Plug your headphones
only into the headphone port and not the line out port.
If you plug your headphones into the line out port
by mistake, the sound output will be unpleasantly or
startlingly loud.
