■ To help keep track of screws, try the following:
■
Place each component’s screws in their own section of a parts sorter.
■
Place each component’s screws next to the component on your work
surface.
■
After loosening screws that are deeply recessed in a hole, you can leave
the screws in the holes if you place small pieces of masking tape over
the hole openings. When reassembling the component, just remove
the tape and tighten the screws.
■
When you place flat-headed screws on your work surface, stand them
on their heads to prevent the screws from rolling off the table.
Preventing static electricity
discharge
The components inside the Family Room Media Center are extremely sensitive
to static electricity, also known as
electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Before replacing components, follow these guidelines:
■ Turn off the Family Room Media Center.
■ Wear a grounding wrist strap (available at most electronics stores) and
attach it to a bare metal part of your workbench or other grounded
connection.
Warning ESD can permanently damage electrostatic
discharge-sensitive components in the Family Room
Media Center. Prevent ESD damage by following ESD
guidelines every time you open the Media Center case.
Warning To avoid exposure to dangerous electrical voltages and
moving parts, turn off the Family Room Media Center and
unplug the power cord and modem and network cables
before opening the case.
Warning To prevent risk of electric shock, do not insert any object
into the vent holes of the Family Room Media Center.
