Getting Started
This chapter describes how to set up the server and to have it ready
for use.
Checking the items included with the server

NOTE: The Read Me First Addendum provides a listing of all
standard accessories and their respective quantities.
If you purchased the server together with an optional internal
device, the optional device will also be incorporated with the
standard accessories listed. However, in such a case it is
possible that the quantities of some accessories, e.g., brack-
ets, do not agree with those specified on the list, this is
because they have already been used to fix the optional inter-
nal device.
If in contrast an expansion slot panel etc. has been removed
from the server in order to install an optional device instead,
the expansion slot panel removed comes with the server as
an accessory.

Mounting optional internal devices
If you have purchased an optional internal device together with the
server, install it before setting up the server.
See “Installing/removing an optional device” on page 52.
If you find it difficult to install an optional device yourself, always
ask an authorized MAGNIA service provider to do it for you.

Micro Tower Type/Rack Type
c Install the server in a clean, dust-free and well-ventilated place.
c Install the server on a level and steady surface.
c Never install the server upside down.
c Ensure the following when installing the server:
- Do not expose to direct sunlight
- Do not install in locations susceptible to vibration or shock.
- Do not install near apparatus which has a strong magnetic
force or produces radio noise, (e.g. radio set, TV set, large
motor or loudspeaker etc.).
- Do not install in locations susceptible to large temperature or
humidity changes, or near an air-conditioner air vent, cooling
fan, heater or heat source
- Do not install in location where liquids or corrosive chemi-
cals are stored.
WARNING: If any foreign matter, including water, has gone
into the server, perform the shutdown steps immediately, turn
off the power button, and unplug the power cable from the

c Only operate the server under the following conditions:
- Ambient temperature:
50 to 95°F (10 to 35°C) (Micro Tower Type)
50 to 89°F (10 to 32°C) (Rack Type)
- Ambient humidity: 30 to 80%Rh (No condensation)
NOTE: To avoid condensation when the room temperature is
too high or too low, do not start your server for about one hour
after the room temperature has fallen within a range of 50 to
95°F (10 to 35°C), or 50 to 89 °F (10 to 32°C) if your server is
a Rack Type.
Keep the server free from condensation during use and stor-
age.
