Improper cooling can lead to system damage and can void the manufacturer's warranty.
To ensure proper cooling and undisturbed airflow through the system do not obstruct the
ventilation openings of the system. Make sure that the fresh air supply is not mixed with hot
exhaust from other devices.

To prevent injury from hot surface do not touch any of the exposed components or
heatsinks on the product when handing. Use the handle and face plate, where applicable, or
the board edge when removing the product from the enclosure.
