• When you use an ESD wrist strap, follow all electrical safety procedures. An ESD wrist strap
is used for static control. It does not increase or decrease your risk of receiving electric shock
when using or working on electrical equipment.
• If you do not have an ESD wrist strap, just prior to removing the product from ESD packaging
and installing or replacing hardware, touch an unpainted metal surface of the system for a
minimum of 5 seconds. If at any point in this service process you move away from the system,
it is important to again discharge yourself by touching an unpainted metal surface for at least
5 seconds before you continue with the service process.
2. Power off the system.
For instructions, see “Stopping the 7063-CR2 system” on page 99.
