While you work, periodically touch the I/O panel to dissipate any static electricity that might harm
internal components.
Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge
Static electricity can harm electronic components inside your computer. To prevent static damage, discharge
static electricity from your body before you touch any of your computer's electronic components, such as a
memory module. You can do so by touching an unpainted metal surface on the computer's I/O panel.
As you continue to work inside the computer, periodically touch an I/O connector to remove any static charge
your body may have accumulated.
You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD):
When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, do not remove the component
from the antistatic packing material until you are ready to install the component. Just before
unwrapping the antistatic packaging, be sure to discharge static electricity from your body.
When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic container or packaging.
Handle all sensitive components in a static-safe area. If possible, use antistatic floor pads and
workbench pads.
The following notice may appear throughout this document to remind you of these precautions:
NOTICE: See "Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge" in the safety instructions at
the front of this guide.
