Safety and Environmental Notices
Danger Notices
A danger notice calls attention to a situation that is potentially lethal or extremely
hazardous to people.
DANGER
To prevent a possible electrical shock during an electrical storm, do not
connect or disconnect cables or station protectors for communications lines,
display stations, printers, or telephones. (RSFTD003)
DANGER
To prevent a possible electrical shock from touching two surfaces with
different electrical grounds, use one hand, when possible, to connect or
disconnect signal cables. (RSFTD004)
DANGER
An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place hazardous voltage
on metal parts of the system or the products that attach to the system. It is the
customer’s responsibility to ensure that the outlet is correctly wired and
grounded to prevent an electrical shock. (RSFTD201)
DANGER
To prevent a possible electrical shock when adding or removing any devices
to or from the system, ensure that the power cords for those devices are
unplugged before the signal cables are connected or disconnected. If possible,
disconnect all power cords from the existing system before you add or
remove a device. (RSFTD203)
Caution Notices
A caution notice calls attention to a situation that is potentially hazardous to
people because of some existing condition.
CAUTION:
Telecommunications Statement: This unit contains over-voltage circuits between
the ac power outlet and the unit. These circuits meet the standard limits
described in International Electrical Commission (IEC) 664, installation category
II. It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that the power outlet meets the
standards of IEC 664, installation category II. (RSFTC214)
Laser Safety Information

Product Recycling and Disposal
Components of the system, such as structural parts and circuit cards, can be
recycled where recycling facilities exist. IBM does not currently collect and recycle
used IBM products from customers in the United States other than those products
that are involved in trade-in programs. Companies are available to disassemble,
reutilize, recycle, or dispose of electronic products. Contact an IBM account
representative for more information.
The system unit contains batteries and circuit boards with lead solder. Before you
dispose of this unit, these batteries and circuit boards must be removed and
discarded according to local regulations or recycled where facilities exist. This book
contains specific information on each battery type where applicable.
Battery Return Program
In the United States, IBM has established a collection process for reuse, recycling,
or proper disposal of used IBM batteries and battery packs. For information on
proper disposal of the batteries in this unit, please contact IBM at 1-800-426-4333.
Please have the IBM part number that is listed on the battery available when you
make your call. For information on battery disposal outside the United States,
contact your local waste disposal facility.
Environmental Design
The environmental efforts that have gone into the design of the system signify
IBM’s commitment to improve the quality of its products and processes. Some of
these accomplishments include the elimination of the use of Class I
ozone-depleting chemicals in the manufacturing process, reductions in
manufacturing wastes, and increased product energy efficiency. For more
information, contact an IBM account representative.

Installation Instructions
Before you begin
__ 1. Take a minute to become familiar with these instructions. Note that you may
not complete every step in this instruction.
__ 2. These instructions contain steps on how to install memory (main storage
cards), including adding another 2884 card assembly, into the system unit.
__ 3. This feature is customer installed. The installation of this feature is intended for
an experienced user who understands industry terminology and who has some
system experience. If you elect not to perform this feature installation yourself,
contact IBM® or an Authorized Dealer. They can perform the feature
installation for a fee.
__ 4. When you use these instructions, you will do the following:
v Remove the system unit covers.
v Install your new hardware.
v Install covers.
v IPL your operating system.
v Verify your new hardware configuration.
You need to allow additional time to complete your jobs, back up your
system, IPL your system, and verify your hardware configuration.
__ 5. Some of the pictures in these instructions may not look exactly like the
system unit that you have. However, the steps to perform the task are the
same.
__ 6. Ensure that you have a current backup of your operating system and
licensed programs. If you have backed up the operating system and licensed
programs since the last time you applied PTFs, that backup is acceptable.
__ 7. If there are incorrect, missing or visibly damaged parts, contact one of the
following:
v Your authorized dealer
v Point of purchase (for example, IBM Direct)
v IBM Rochester Manufacturing Automated Information Line (R-MAIL)
– 1-800-300-8751 (United States)
– 1-507-253-5242 (worldwide)
__ 8. Determine if there are any existing PTF prerequisites before you install your
new feature. Go to this Web site and locate your feature number and
OS/400® release and check the prerequisites:
Then do the following to get to the Customer Install Features Prerequisites:

__ 9. If you encounter difficulties during the installation, contact your authorized
dealer or service provider.
Powering off the system unit
__ 1. Set the System performance adjustment to a value other than option 0.
__ a. On an iSeries command line, type WRKSYSVAL (QPFRADJ) and press
Enter.
__ b. Select the Change option on the Work with System Values display and
press Enter.
__ c. If you have a Performance adjustment value of option 1, option 2, or
option 3 you do not need to change the value. Press Enter.
If the Performance adjustment value is 0 (No adjustment), it is
necessary to change the value to 2.
__ d. Press F3 once to return to the Main Menu.
__ 2. Ensure that all jobs are complete (WRKACTJOB).
__ 3. When all jobs are complete, type: pwrdwnsys *immed on an iSeries command
line and press the Enter key.
Note: If you encounter difficulties during the installation, contact your
dealer or your service provider.
__ 4. When the iSeries is completely powered down disconnect all PCs from the
system unit. Power off all devices, such as printers and displays, that are
connected to the system unit.
__ 5. Unplug any power cords, such as printers and displays, from electrical
outlets.
__ 6. Unplug the system unit power cord from the electrical outlet.
__ 8. Attach the disposable wrist strap to prevent electrostatic discharge from
damaging a device. Attach the adhesive part of the foil to an unpainted
surface.
Notes:
a. Follow the same precautions you would use without the wrist strap. The
2209 Disposable Wrist Strap is for static control. It will not increase nor
decrease your risk of receiving electric shock when using or working on
electrical equipment.
b. Discard the wrist strap immediately and contact your dealer for a
replacement, if the disposable wrist strap appears damaged or is cut off.
Do not continue until a new wrist strap is available.
c. Remove the liner from the copper foil at the end, when you unroll the
strap.
d. Attach the copper foil to an exposed, unpainted metal surface on the
frame of the unit (electrical ground).
Identifying the memory location
Depending on which system processor you have, memory can be located on the
inside of your system unit or in a separate card assembly (feature 2884).
