Preparing to install options
Attention
Before you install any option, read the “Safety information” on page vii
and “Handling static-sensitive devices.” These precautions and
guidelines will help you work safely.
The presence of 5 V standby power might result in damage to your
hardware unless you disconnect the power cord from the electrical
outlet before opening the computer cover.
Caution : Be careful when working near the microprocessor. Under
normal use, the microprocessor can become very hot.
Handling static-sensitive devices
Static electricity, although harmless to you, can seriously damage computer
components and options. When you add an option, do not open the
static-protective package containing the option until you are instructed to
do so.
When you handle options and other computer components, take these
precautions to avoid static electricity damage:
Ÿ
Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build
up around you.
Ÿ
Always handle components carefully. Handle adapters, memory
RIMMs, and continuity RIMMs by the edges. Never touch any exposed
circuitry.
Ÿ
Prevent others from touching components.
Ÿ
When you install a new option, touch the static-protective package
containing the option to a metal expansion-slot cover or other
unpainted metal surface on the computer for at least two seconds. This
reduces static electricity in the package and your body.
Ÿ
When possible, remove the option and install it directly in the
computer without setting the option down. When this is not possible,
place the static-protective package that the option came in on a smooth,
level surface and place the option on it.
Ÿ
Do not place the option on the computer cover or other metal surface.
