WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment: • Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety feature. • Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily accessible at all times. • Unplug the power cord from the power supply to disconnect power to the equipment. • Do not route the power cord where it can be walked on or pinched by items placed against it. Pay particular attention to the plug, electrical outlet, and the point where the cord extends from the server. Installing the rear components CAUTION: To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, do not operate the enclosure unless all bays are populated with a component or a blank. Cabling the chassis For detailed information about cabling the chassis, see the HP ProLiant s6500 Chassis Setup and Installation Guide. Powering up the chassis 1. Connect the power cables to the power supplies. 2. Connect the power cables to the power source (UPS or wall outlet) or to an installed PDU.
