IMPORTANT:
It is important to leave a clearance of 76cm to the rear side of the chassis. The clearance is re-
quired to ensure an adequate airow through the chassis to ventilate heat. A 64cm clearance is
also required on the front of the chassis.
To ensure normal operation, maintain ambient airow. Do not block the airow around chassis
such as placing the system in a closed cabinet.
