You sh ould prepare a safe workin g en viron m en t before assem blin g th e server
by followin g th ese guidelin es:
Important
Keep the boxes and packing material. If you need to send
the server to Gateway for repairs, you must use the original
packaging or your warranty may be voided.
■ Obtain an adequately rated un in terruptible power supply (UPS). A UPS
protects again st AC lin e spikes, power in terruption s, an d oth er power
fluctuation s th at m ay dam age th e server.
■ Protect th e server from extrem e tem perature an d h um idity. Do n ot
expose it to direct sun ligh t, h eater ducts, or oth er h eat-gen eratin g objects.
■ Route extern al cables carefully to m ake sure th ey do n ot block air ven ts
or im pede airflow.
■ Make sure th at th e in let air tem perature with in th e rack cabin et rem ain s
below th e specified lim it of 40° C (104° F).
■ Keep th e server away from equipm en t th at gen erates m agn etic fields,
such as un sh ielded stereo speakers. Even a teleph on e placed too close to
th e server m ay cause in terferen ce.

Warning
For the power supply of this equipment, an approved
power cord has to be used. For a rated current up to 6 A
and an equipment weight up to 6 kg, a power cord not
lighter than H05VV-F, 3 G, 0.75 mm2, has to be used.
Warning
Zum Netzanschluß dieses Gerätes ist eine geprüfte
Leitung zu verwenden. Für einen Nennstrom bis 6 A und
einem Gerätewicht größer 6 kg ist eine Leitung nicht
leichter als H05VV-F, 3 G, 0.75 mm2 einzusetzen.
Starting the server
Before you start th e server for th e first tim e, m ake sure:

th e server.
Caution
Electricity can flow from connected peripherals into the
system causing a shock. Make sure the server and
peripherals are turned off and unplugged from the power
outlet when you connect peripherals to the server.
■ Th e server an d m on itor are plugged in to an AC outlet, power strip, or
UPS an d th at th e power strip or UPS is turn ed on .
To start the system:
1 If you h ave con n ected th e system com pon en ts to a power strip or UPS,
m ake sure all th e system com pon en ts are turn ed off, th en turn on th e
power strip or UPS.
2 Turn on th e m on itor.

Before open in g th e server case, follow th ese precaution s to preven t dam age
from static electricity. Wh en open in g your server case, always perform th e
followin g procedure.
Caution
Static electricity can permanently damage electronic
components in your server. Prevent electrostatic damage
to your server by following static electricity precautions
every time you open your server case.
To prevent static electricity discharge:
1 Turn off th e server power.
2 Touch a bare m etal surface on th e back of th e server.
3 Un plug all power cords from AC outlets an d discon n ect th e m odem cable
(if in stalled).
Also follow th ese static electricity precaution s:
■ Avoid static-causin g surfaces such as plastic an d packin g foam in your
work area.
■ Rem ove th e parts from th eir an tistatic bags or con tain ers on ly wh en you
are ready to use th em . Do n ot lay parts on th e outside of an an tistatic

Caution
Although this equipment can use either loop disconnect
(Pulse) or DTMF (Tone) signaling, only the performance
of the DTMF signaling is subject to regulatory
requirements for correct operation. It is therefore strongly
recommended that the equipment is set to use DTMF
signaling for access to public or private emergency
services. DTMF signaling also provides faster call set up.
Th is equipm en t h as been approved to Coun cil Decision 98/482/EEC--“CTR 21” for Pan -European
sin gle term in al con n ection to th e Public Switch ed Teleph on e Network (PSTN). However, due to
differen ces between th e in dividual PSTNs provided in differen t coun tries, th e approval does n ot,
of itself, give an un con dition al assuran ce of successful operation on every PSTN term in ation
poin t. In th e even t of problem s, you sh ould con tact Gateway custom er support.
