Safety Notes

To ensure proper cooling and undisturbed airflow through the system always operate the
system in a horizontal position. Do not obstruct the ventilation openings at the top, sides and
back of the system. Keep the fresh air intake at the bottom-front side of the chassis completely
clear. Make sure that the fresh air supply is not mixed with hot exhaust from other devices.
To ensure proper air flow within the system make sure that all slots are populated with either
blades, filler blades, or dummy blades.
System Overheating
If you reduce the fan speed the system temperature will rise.
Constantly control the system temperature once you have reduced the fan speed. While
operating the system make sure the environmental and power requirements are met.
System Damage or Injury
Covers and Panels
Failure to operate the system without covering vacant slots will void the manufacturer’s
warranty.
Do not operate the system with open module slots. For optimal cooling of the system and
associated payload and to prevent electric shock, cover all open module slots and put all panels
in place before turning on power. Slot covers and panels must remain in place during system
operation.
System Damage
Air Filter
Air contamination can pollute the air filter and obstruct the air intake of the system which may
cause system overheating and blade or system component damage.
Air filters should be cleaned at least every 90 days or sooner, depending on the conditions of
the central office environment. Because central offices vary in physical location and
cleanliness, check your air filters every week after you first install your system. In a dusty
environment, a filter may need cleaning more often than a filter in a cleaner environment.
Check the filters frequently until you have a good idea of how often it needs cleaning. Based on
your findings, establish a regular cleaning schedule and keep a log to record the date of each
filter cleaning or replacement.
