Safety notices

Safety notices contain information that is related to using the IBM

NetVista thin

client in a safe manner. These notices can be in the form of a danger, caution, or

attention notice.

Danger notices

The following danger notices call attention to situations that are potentially lethal

or extremely hazardous. These notices pertain throughout this book.

DANGER

To prevent a possible electrical shock during an electrical storm, do not

connect or disconnect cables or station protectors for communications lines,

display stations, printers, or telephones. (RSFTD003)

DANGER

To prevent a possible electrical shock from touching two surfaces with

different electrical grounds, use one hand, when possible, to connect or

disconnect signal cables. (RSFTD004)

DANGER

An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place hazardous voltage

on metal parts of the system or the products that attach to the system. It is the

customer’s responsibility to ensure that the outlet is correctly wired and

grounded to prevent an electrical shock. (RSFTD201)

DANGER

To prevent a possible electrical shock when installing the system, ensure that

the power cords for all devices are unplugged before installing signal cables.

(RSFTD202)

DANGER

To prevent a possible electrical shock when adding the device to a system,

disconnect all power cords, if possible, from the existing system before

connecting the signal cable to that device. (RSFTD205)

DANGER

To prevent a possible electrical shock, disconnect the power cord from the

electrical outlet before opening the unit. (RSFTD215)

DANGER

To reduce the risk of electrical shock use only AC power sources approved by

IBM. (RSFTD216)

Caution notices

A caution notice applies to a situation that is potentially hazardous to people

because of some existing condition.

CAUTION:

The battery is a lithium battery. To avoid possible explosion, do not burn or

charge the battery. Exchange only with the IBM-approved part. Discard the

battery as instructed by local regulations. (RSFTC227)

Handling static-sensitive devices

When you handle components, take these precautions to avoid static electricity

damage:

vDo not open static-protective packages until you are ready to install their

contents.

vLimit your movements to avoid static electricity build-up around you.

vHandle components carefully, and never touch exposed circuitry.

vPrevent others from touching components.

vPlace components on static-protective packages while performing hardware

removal and installation procedures.

vDo not place components on metal surfaces.
