WARNING!
To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your equipment:
— Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety feature.
— Plug the power cord in a grounded (earthed) outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
— Disconnect power from the equipment by unplugging the power cord from the electrical outlet.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the Safety & Comfort Guide. It describes proper
computer setup, posture, health, and work habits for computer users, and provides important electrical and

possible injury to you and damage to the computer. To properly and safely lift the computer, lift from the
bottom of the computer.
CAUTION:
Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the computer. To prevent damage to
the computer, observe the following Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions while servicing the computer:
— Discharge static electricity by briefly touching a grounded metal object before you begin.
— Work on a static-free mat.
— Wear a static strap to ensure that any accumulated electrostatic charge is discharged from your body to
the ground.
— Create a common ground for the equipment you are working on by connecting the static-free mat, static
strap, and peripheral units to that piece of equipment.

Generating static
Different activities generate different amounts of static electricity through electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Static electricity increases as humidity decreases.
CAUTION:
Static electricity in the amount of 700 volts might degrade a product.
