Access Panel Warnings
To access the system board, processors, memory sockets, expansion slots, and
other internal components, the access panel must be removed. Observe the
following warnings and cautions.
WARNING: The system power in the ProLiant DL360 G2 server is not completely
shut off by pressing the front panel Power On/Standby switch. Moving the server
Power On/Standby switch to the standby position removes power from most
areas of the server; this process may take 30 seconds. Portions of the power
supply and some internal circuitry remain active until AC power is removed.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the
internal system components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION: Do not operate the server without the access panel installed because
it is required for proper airflow. Operating the server without its access panel
results in improper cooling that can lead to thermal damage.
CAUTION: Before removing the server access panel, be sure that the server is
in standby mode and that the power cord is disconnected from the server or the
electrical outlet.
CAUTION: To avoid the risk of damage to the system or expansion boards,
remove all AC power cords before installing or removing expansion boards.
When the Power On/Standby switch is in the standby position, auxiliary power is
still connected to the PCI expansion slot and may damage the card.
CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic components. Be sure
you are properly grounded before beginning any installation procedure.
