Controls and status indicators
Important
The power line and power control behavior of the Netfinity 3500 M10 is different from some earlier server models. Note the following:

• When the power cord is first plugged in, the server might appear to power on for a few seconds, then power off. This is a normal sequence to enable the server to self-initialize.
• The power switch will normally operate with a single touch. However, in some circumstances the server may not immediately power off. In this case, hold the power switch down for approximately 5 seconds. The server will then turn off.

Do not operate your server with the cover off. Proper cooling is required for the reliable performance of internal components.  

 
The following describes the operating controls and status indicators located on the front of your server.

Power Switch: Press this switch to turn your server on or off. Do not turn off your server if the in-use light for the hard disk drive or diskette drive is on.
 
Caution
The power control button on the device and the power switch on the power supply do not turn off the electrical current supplied to the device. The device also might have more than one power cord. To remove all electrical current from the device, ensure that all power cords are disconnected from the power source.
