ESD Safety Guidelines
CAUTION
Electric Static Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic
components. To prevent damage to your system board, it is
important to handle it very carefully.
The following measures are generally sufficient to protect against Electric Statics Discharge (ESD).
Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
Keep all components and printed circuit boards (PCBs) in their anti-static bags until ready for use.
Touch a grounded metal object before removing the board from the anti-static bag.
Do not let components or PCBs come into contact with your clothing, which may retain a charge
even if you are wearing a wrist strap.
Touch a grounded metal object before removing the board from the anti-static bag.
Handle a board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral chips, memory modules
or contacts.
When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.
Put the motherboard and peripherals back into their anti-static bags when not in use.
For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent conductivity between
the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and the motherboard.
