You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD):
• Do not remove components from their antistatic packing material until you are ready to install the
component in your computer. Just before unwrapping the antistatic packaging, discharge static
electricity from your body.
• When transporting an electrostatic sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic container or
packaging.
• Handle all electrostatic sensitive components in a static-safe area. If possible, use antistatic floor
pads and workbench pads.
Battery Disposal
Your computer uses a lithium coin-cell battery. The lithium coin-cell battery is a long-life battery, and it is
very possible that you will never need to replace it. However, should you need to replace it, see your
User’s
Guide .
Do not dispose of the battery along with household waste. Contact your local waste disposal agency for
the address of the nearest battery deposit site.
