v
The
use
of
a
grounding
system
is
recommended.
For
example,
wear
an
electrostatic-discharge
wrist
strap,
if
one
is
available.
Always
use
an
electrostatic-discharge
wrist
strap
or
other
grounding
system
when
working
inside
the
server
with
the
power
on.
v
Handle
the
device
carefully,
holding
it
by
its
edges
or
its
frame.
v
Do
not
touch
solder
joints,
pins,
or
exposed
circuitry.
v
Do
not
leave
the
device
where
others
can
handle
and
damage
it.
v
While
the
device
is
still
in
its
static-protective
package,
touch
it
to
an
unpainted
metal
part
on
the
outside
of
the
server
for
at
least
2
seconds.
This
drains
static
electricity
from
the
package
and
from
your
body.
v
Remove
the
device
from
its
package
and
install
it
directly
into
the
server
without
setting
down
the
device.
If
it
is
necessary
to
set
down
the
device,
put
it
back
into
its
static-protective
package.
Do
not
place
the
device
on
the
server
cover
or
on
a
metal
surface.
v
Take
additional
care
when
handling
devices
during
cold
weather.
Heating
reduces
indoor
humidity
and
increases
static
electricity.

the
front
cover,
top
cover,
and
bezel
Remove
the
top
cover
and
bezel

the
front
cover.
