Electrostatic discharge guidelines
Follow these ESD guidelines to ensure that your equipment isn’t damaged from improper handling:
•
When you install or perform maintenance tasks, you must wear a grounded ESD antistatic strap to
protect the hardware against electrostatic discharge. Make sure that the strap makes skin contact
prior to handling equipment.
•
Periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap to ensure it is functioning properly.
•
If you remove or replace appliance components, you must transport the component in a
conductive container or an ESD bag that has been grounded or neutralized.
•
Store any appliance components in their protective packaging until you are ready to install them.
•
Don’t touch the electronic components on the appliance.
