For complete safety and regulatory information, see the
Product Information
Guide that shipped with your system. Warranty information might be included
in this document or as a separate document.
SAFETY: Rack Mounting of Systems
Observe the following precautions for rack stability and safety. Also refer to
the rack installation documentation accompanying the system and the rack for
specific caution statements and procedures.
Systems are considered to be components in a rack. Thus, "component" refers
to any system as well as to various peripherals or supporting hardware.
CAUTION:
Before installing systems in a rack, install front and side stabilizers on
stand-alone racks or the front stabilizer on racks joined to other racks. Failure to
install stabilizers accordingly before installing systems in a rack could cause the
rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury under certain circumstances.
Therefore, always install the stabilizer(s) before installing components in the rack.
After installing system/components in a rack, never pull more than one component
out of the rack on its slide assemblies at one time. The weight of more than one
extended component could cause the rack to tip over and may result in serious
injury.
NOTE:
Your system is safety-certified as a free-standing unit and as a component
for use in a Dell™ rack cabinet using the customer rack kit. The installation of your
system and rack kit in any other rack cabinet has not been approved by any safety
agencies. It is your responsibility to ensure that the final combination of system
and rack complies with all applicable safety standards and local electric code
requirements. Dell disclaims all liability and warranties in connection with such
combinations.
•
System rack kits are intended to be installed in a rack by trained service
technicians. If you install the kit in any other rack, be sure that the rack
meets the specifications of a Dell rack.
CAUTION:
Do not move racks by yourself. Due to the height and weight
of the rack, a minimum of two people should accomplish this task.
