WARNING: Safety Instructions

Use the following safety guidelines to help ensure your own personal safety

and to help protect your system and working environment from potential

damage.

WARNING:

Do not expose the Dell PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller

(PERC) S300 adapter to liquids. To reduce risk of fire hazard, do not cover or

obstruct the ventilation openings of the system in which it is installed. Do not

install the controller in a zero-clearance compartment. This could result in

overheating.

WARNING:

Do not operate the controller if it has been dropped or damaged in

any way.

WARNING:

The controller, like every other electronic part of a system, can be

damaged by static electricity. Be sure that you are properly grounded. It is

recommended that you wear a grounded antistatic strap and that the system is

unplugged before you install the controller.

CAUTION:

Cable connectors must be mated carefully with the connectors on the

PERC S300 adapter. The connectors are keyed to prevent them from being inserted

incorrectly.

CAUTION:

Ensure that the current RAID controller (if any) is not currently working

on any pending tasks (such as a rebuild) before it is turned off to conduct a system

upgrade.

CAUTION:

During a firmware update, do not reboot the system that contains the

PERC S300 adaper. An update might take up to five minutes per controller.

WARNING: Safety Instructions

SAFETY: General

Observe and follow service markings:

• Do not service any product except as explained in the user documentation.

Opening or removing covers that are marked with a triangular symbol with

a lightning bolt might expose you to electrical shock. Components inside

these compartments must be serviced only by a trained service technician.

• Use the product only with Dell-approved equipment.

• Operate the product only from the type of external power source indicated

on the electrical ratings label. If you are not sure of the type of power

source required, consult your service provider or local power company.

SAFETY: When Working Inside Your System

Before you remove the system covers, perform the following steps in the

sequence indicated.

WARNING:

Only trained service technicians are authorized by Dell to remove

covers from the system, and access any of the internal components, unless the

Dell documentation expressly states otherwise.

CAUTION:

To help avoid possible damage to the system board, wait five seconds

after turning off the system before disconnecting the controller.

Turn off the system and any devices.

Wear grounding straps that are properly grounded before touching

anything inside the system.

While you work, periodically touch an unpainted metal surface on the

chassis to dissipate any static electricity that might harm internal

components.

Disconnect your system and devices from their power sources. To reduce

the potential of personal injury or shock, disconnect any

telecommunication lines from the system.

WARNING: Safety Instructions

In addition, take note of these safety guidelines when appropriate:

• When you disconnect any cable, pull on its connector or on its strain-relief

loop, not on the cable itself. Some cables have a connector with locking

tabs. If you are disconnecting this type of cable, press in on the locking

tabs before disconnecting the cable. As you pull connectors apart, keep

them evenly aligned to avoid bending any connector pins. Also, before you

connect a cable, make sure that both connectors are correctly oriented and

aligned.

• Handle the controller with care. Do not touch the components or contacts

on the controller.

Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) events can harm electronic components inside

your system. ESD, or electrostatic discharge, is the process by which static

electricity can build up within a person or an object, and then discharge into

another object. ESD events can harm your PERC S300 adaper, your system,

and other electrical components. To prevent ESD damage, you must

discharge static electricity from your body before you interact with any of the

system’s internal electronic components. You can protect against ESD by

touching a metal grounded object (such as an unpainted metal surface on

your system’s I/O panel) before you interact with anything electronic. In

addition, as you work inside the system, periodically touch an I/O connector

to remove any static charge your body might have accumulated.

You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic

discharge:

• When unpacking the controller from its shipping carton, do not remove

the controller from the antistatic packing material until you are ready to

install it. Just before unwrapping the antistatic package, be sure to

discharge static electricity from your body.

• Handle all electrostatic sensitive components in a static-safe area. If

possible, use anti-static floor pads and work bench pads.
