Before You Begin
CAUTIONS
The procedures in this user guide assume familiarity with the general terminology associated with
personal computers and with the safety practices and regulatory compliance required for using
and modifying electronic equipment.
Disconnect the computer from its power source and from any telecommunications link or network before
performing any of the procedures described in this guide. Failure to disconnect power,
telecommunications links, or networks before you open the computer or perform any procedures can
result in personal injury or equipment damage. Some circuitry on the board can continue to operate even
though the front panel power button is off.
Follow these guidelines before you begin:
•
Always follow the steps in each procedure in the correct order.
•
Set up a log to record information about your computer, such as model, serial numbers, installed
options, and configuration information.
•
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components. Perform the procedures described in this
chapter only at an ESD workstation using an antistatic wrist strap and a conductive foam pad. If
such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist
strap and attaching it to a metal part of the computer chassis.
Installation Precautions
When you install and test the Intel NUC, observe all warnings and cautions in the installation
instructions.
To avoid injury, be careful of:
•
Sharp pins on connectors
•
Sharp pins on circuit boards
•
Rough edges and sharp corners on the chassis
•
Hot components (such as SSDs, processors, voltage regulators, and heat sinks)
•
Damage to wires that could cause a short circuit
Observe all warnings and cautions that instruct you to refer computer servicing to qualified
technical personnel.
Observe Safety and Regulatory Requirements
If you do not follow these instructions, you increase your safety risk and the possibility of
noncompliance with regional laws and regulations.
