Antistatic Precautions
This product may contain static-sensitive devices that are easily damaged by electrostatic discharge
(ESD). ESD occurs when a person whose body has built up static electricity touches a computer
component. ESD can cause computer components to fail. Take proper handling, grounding and
precautionary ESD measures installing parts or cards. Keep parts and cards in antistatic packaging
when not in use or during transport. If possible, use antistatic pads on floor and workbench.
When handling components, always use an antistatic wrist strap connected to a grounded equipment
frame or chassis. If a wrist strap is not available, periodically touch an unpainted metal surface on
the equipment. Never use a conductive tool, like a screwdriver or a paper clip, to set switches.
