◆
Preventing Electrostatic Dischargeon the following page.
4)
Disconnect any telephone or telecommunications lines from the computer.
In addition, take note of these safety guidelines when appropriate:
To help avoid possible damage to system boards, wait five seconds after turning off the computer before
removing a component, removing a system board, or disconnecting a peripheral device from the
computer.
When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its strain-relief loop, not on the cable itself.
Some cables have a connector with locking tabs. If you are disconnecting this type of cable, press in on
the locking tabs before disconnecting the cable. As you pull connectors apart, keep them evenly aligned
to avoid bending any connector pins. Also, before connecting a cable, make sure both connectors are
correctly oriented and aligned.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to service the system yourself except as explained in this user’ s guide. Follow installation
and troubleshooting instructions closely.
