IBM Storwize V7000 Gen2, Quick Installation Manual, Page: 17 / 76

v
Insert the ends of your necktie or scarf inside clothing or fasten it with a
nonconducting clip, approximately 8 cm (3 in.) from the end.
v
Do not wear jewelry, chains, metal-frame eyeglasses, or metal fasteners for your
clothing.
Remember: Metal objects are good electrical conductors.
v Wear safety glasses when you are hammering, drilling, soldering, cutting wire,
attaching springs, using solvents, or working in any other conditions that might
be hazardous to your eyes.
v
After service, reinstall all safety shields, guards, labels, and ground wires.
Replace any safety device that is worn or defective.
v
Reinstall all covers correctly after you have finished servicing the unit.
Handling static-sensitive devices
Ensure that you understand how to handle devices that are sensitive to static
electricity.
Attention: Static electricity can damage electronic devices and your system. To
avoid damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their static-protective bags until you
are ready to install them.
To reduce the possibility of electrostatic discharge, observe the following
precautions:
v
Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around
you.
v
Handle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or frame.
v
Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed printed circuitry.
v
Do not leave the device where others can handle and possibly damage the
device.
v
While the device is still in its antistatic bag, touch it to an unpainted metal part
of the system unit for at least two seconds. (This action removes static electricity
from the package and from your body.)
v Remove the device from its package and install it directly into your Storwize
V7000, without putting it down. If it is necessary to put the device down, place
it onto its static-protective bag. (If your device is an adapter, place it
component-side up.) Do not place the device onto the cover of the Storwize
V7000 or onto a metal table.
v
Take additional care when you handle devices during cold weather. Indoor
humidity tends to decrease in cold weather, causing an increase in static
electricity.
