Static Electricity Precautions
Static electricity may damage components of this mainboard.
Please take the following precautions while unpacking the
mainboard and installing it in a system.
1. Keep the mainboard and other components in their original
static-proof packaging until you are ready to install them.
2. During installation, wear a grounded wrist strap if possible. If
you don’t have a wrist strap, you can discharge static
electricity by touching the bare metal of the system chassis.
3. Handle the mainboard carefully by the edges. Avoid touching
the components unless it is absolutely necessary. During
installation, put the mainboard on top of the static-protection
packaging that comes in with the component side facing up.
Pre-Installation Inspection
1. Inspect the mainboard whether there are any damanges to the
components and connectors on the board.
2. If the mainboard seems damaged to you, please do not connect
power to the system. Contact your mainboard vendor and
show where the damages are.
