1.7 Safety Precautions
Warning! Always completely disconnect the power cord from
your chassis whenever you work with the hardware.
Do not make connections while the power is on.
Sensitive electronic components can be damaged
by sudden power surges. Only experienced
electronics personnel should open the PC chassis.
Caution! Always ground yourself to remove any static charge
before touching the CPU card. Modern electronic
devices are very sensitive to static electric charges.
As a safety precaution, use a grounding wrist strap
at all times. Place all electronic components in a
static-dissipative surface or static-shielded bag when
they are not in the chassis.
