Preventing Injury
Cautions
: Observe the following safety warnings to prevent accidental injury when
working with the SmartSwitch Router (SSR) hardware.
• To avoid back strain, be careful when lifting the chassis out of the shipping box.
• Never attempt to rack mount the SSR chassis unaided. Ask an assistant to help you
hold the chassis.
• Never operate the SSR with exposed power-supply bays or module slots. You can leave
the PCMCIA slots exposed but make sure you do not place any tools or body parts in
the PCMCIA slot.
• Never operate the SSR if the chassis becomes wet or the area where the chassis is
installed is wet.
