Safety information
This device complies with the relevant safety regulations for data
processing equipment, including electronic office machines for use in
an office environment.
If you have any questions, contact your sales outlet or an AOpen
customer service centre.
Caution: The actions described in these instructions should only
be performed by technicians, service personnel or technical
specialists. Equipment repairs should only be performed by
qualified staff. Any failure to observe the guidelines in this
manual could expose the user to risks (electric shock, fire hazards)
and could also damage the equipment. Note that any
unauthorized opening of the device will result in the invalidation
of the warranty and exclusion from all liability.
Before setting up
• During installation and before operating the device, observe the
instructions on environmental conditions for you device (refer to
page 7).
• If the device is brought in from a cold environment, condensation
may form both inside and on the outside of the machine.
Before operating the device, wait until it is absolutely dry and has
reached approximately the same temperature as the installation
site. Failure to observe these guidelines can lead to material
damage of the device.
• Transport the device only in the original packaging or in a
packaging which protects it from knocks and jolts.
Installation and operation
• The server automatically adjusts to a mains voltage between 100 V
to 127 V and/or 200 V to 240 V. The server may be place in
operation only, if the mains voltage range set on the server
corresponds to the local mains voltage.
• This device has a safety tested power cable and must only be
connected to a properly grounded power socket.
Fortress 1120 ug - EN .book Page vii Monday, February 17, 2003 3:41 PM
viii
• Ensure that the power socket on the device or the grounded mains
outlet is freely accessible.
• The power switch does not disconnect the device from the mains
voltage. To completely disconnect it from the mains voltage,
remove the power plug from the power socket.
• Always connect the device and the attached peripherals to the
same power circuit. Otherwise you run the risk of losing data if, for
example, the central processing unit is still running but the
peripheral device (e.g. storage subsystem) has failed during a
power outage.
• Data cables for peripherals must be adequately shielded to avoid
interference.
• Route the cables in such a way that they do not form a potential
hazard (make sure no-one can trip over them) and that they
cannot be damaged.
• No data transmission cable should be connected or disconnected
during a thunderstorm (lightning hazard).
Otherwise you run the risk of losing data if, for example, the
central processing unit is still running but the peripheral device
(e.g. storage subsystem) has failed during a power outage.
• In emergencies (e.g. damaged casing, elements, or cables,
penetration of liquids or foreign matter), switch off the device
immediately, remove the power connector from the grounded
power socket, and contact your customer service centre.
• Proper operation of the device (in accordance with IEC 60950/DIN
EN 60950) is only ensured if the casing is completely assembled and
the rear covers for the installation openings have been put in place
(electric shock, cooling, fire protection, interference suppression).
• Install only system expansions that satisfy the requirements and
rules governing safety and electromagnetic compatibility and
relating to telecommunications terminal equipment. If you install
other expansions, you may damage the system or violate the
safety regulations and regulations governing RFI suppression.
Information on which system expansions are suitable can be
obtained from the customer service centre or your sales outlet.
• Components marked with a warning label (e.g. lightning symbol)
may only be opened, removed, or exchanged by authorized,
qualified personnel. The hot-swap or hot-plug components are
exceptions to this rule.
• The warranty is invalidated if the device is damaged during the
Fortress 1120 ug - EN .book Page viii Monday, February 17, 2003 3:41 PM
ix
installation or replacement of system expansions.
• You may set only those resolutions and refresh rates specified in
the documentation accompanying the monitor. Otherwise, you
may damage your monitor. If you are in any doubt, contact your
sales outlet or customer service centre.
Batteries
• Incorrect replacement of batteries may lead to a risk of explosion.
The batteries may only be replaced with identical batteries or with
a type recommended by the manufacturer.
• Do not throw batteries into the trash can. They must be disposed
of in accordance with local regulations concerning special waste.
• Replace the lithium battery on the mainboard in accordance with
the instructions given by the manufacturer.
• All batteries containing pollutants are marked with a symbol (a
crossed-out garbage can). In addition, the marking is provided
with the chemical symbol of the heavy metal decisive for the
classification as a pollutant:
Cd Cadmium
Hg Mercury
Pb Lead

Environmental protection
Environmentally friendly product design and development
This product has been designed in accordance with standards for
”environmentally friendly product design and development“. This
means that the designers have taken into account important criteria
such as durability, selection of materials and coding, emissions,
packaging, the ease with which the product can be dismantled and the
extent to which it can be recycled. This saves resources and thus
reduces the harm done to the environment.
Notes on saving energy
Devices that do not have to be on permanently should not be switched
on until they need to be used and should be switched off during long
breaks and on completion of work
Notes on packaging
Please do not throw away the packaging. We recommend that you do
not throw away the original packaging in case you need it later for
transporting your system unit. If possible, devices should be
transported in their original packaging.
Notes on dealing with consumables
Please dispose of printer consumables and batteries in accordance with
local government regulations.
Do not throw lithium batteries into the household waste. They must be
disposed of in accordance with local regulations concerning special
waste.
Notes on labeling plastic housing parts
Please avoid attaching your own labels to plastic housing parts
wherever possible, since this makes it difficult to recycle them.
