Preventing static electricity discharge
Before opening the server case, follow these precautions to prevent damage
from static electricity. When opening your server case, always perform the
following procedure.
To prevent static electricity discharge:
1
Turn off the server power.
2
Touch a bare metal surface on the back of the server.
3
Unplug all power cords from AC outlets and disconnect the modem cord
(if installed).
Also follow these static electricity precautions:
■
Avoid static-causing surfaces such as plastic and packing foam in your
work area.
■
Remove the parts from their antistatic bags or containers only when you
are ready to use them. Do not lay parts on the outside of an antistatic
bag or container because only the inside provides antistatic protection.
■
Always hold cards by their edges and their metal mounting brackets.
Avoid touching components on the cards and the edge connectors that
connect to expansion slots. Never slide cards or other parts over any
surface.
Caution
Static electricity can permanently damage electronic
components in your server. Prevent electrostatic damage
to your server by following static electricity precautions
every time you open your server case.
