The system is designed to be electrically grounded. To ensure proper operation,
plug the AC power cord into a properly grounded AC outlet only.
Electrostatic Discharge Precautions

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage static sensitive devices or micro
circuitry. Proper packaging and grounding techniques are required to prevent
damage.
•
Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at a
static free work area.
•
Use a wrist strap connected to the work surface as well as properly grounded
tools and equipment
•
Keep the area free of nonconductive materials such as ordinary plastic
tools and foam packing.
•
Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.

Grasp cards and boards by the edges. Hold drives by the frame. Avoid
touching the solder joints or pins.
