NOTE:
Whenever you need to lift the system, get others to assist you. To avoid injury, do not attempt to lift the system by
yourself.
WARNING:
Opening or removing the system cover while the system is powered on may expose you to a risk of
electric shock.
CAUTION:
Do not operate the system without the cover for a duration exceeding five minutes. Operating the
