Unpacking the Autoloader

Before you begin, clear a desk or table so that you can unpack the autoloader. You also need to select an open 2U computer rack location near the server that
will host the autoloader.

Unpack and inspect the autoloader for shipping damage by doing the following:

1.

Clear a table or desk so that you have room to unpack the autoloader.

2.

Inspect the shipping box for damage. If you notice any damage, report it to the shipping company immediately.

3.

Open the shipping box and remove the accessories package. Set the accessories package aside for now.

4.

Lift the autoloader and padding out of the box and place it on the work surface, top facing up. Do not set the autoloader on either end or sides.

5.

Carefully remove the shipping padding from the front and back of the autoloader. Then remove the bag from the autoloader. Save the packing materials
in case you need to move or ship the autoloader in the future.
Illustrations on the box flaps indicate proper placement of the packaging materials.

by a qualified Dell Service Provider.

NOTICE: If the room in which you are working differs from the temperature in which the autoloader was shipped or stored by 15°C (30°
F) or more, let the autoloader acclimate to the surrounding environment for at least 24 hours before opening the shipping carton.

NOTICE: If your unit was ordered as a one-magazine autoloader, be sure to remove the plastic shipping insert from the magazine bay
before connecting or operating your autoloader. Insert either a magazine or a magazine blank into the bay. The autoloader will not
function without both magazine bays equipped with either a magazine or a magazine blank.
