3.1 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the maintenance of the EP
series may result in permanent damage to the EP series and severe
injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the PPC-F06B-BT. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore
critical that whenever the PPC-F06B-BT is accessed internally, or any other electrical
component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.

Wear an anti-static wristband : Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.

Self-grounding : Before handling the board, touch any grounded conducting
material. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any
conducting materials that are connected to the ground.

Use an anti-static pad : When configuring the PPC-F06B-BT, place it on an
anti-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the
PPC-F06B-BT.

Only handle the edges of the PCB : When handling the PCB, hold the PCB
by the edges.
