Before You Begin
CAUTIONS
The steps in this guide assume you’re familiar with computer terminology and with the
safety practices and regulatory compliance required for using and modifying computer
equipment.
Disconnect the computer from its power source and from any network before performing any of
the steps described in this guide.
Failure to disconnect power or networks before you open the computer or perform any procedures
can result in personal injury and/or equipment damage. Some circuitry on the board can continue
to operate even though the front panel power button is off.
Follow these guidelines before you begin:
Always follow the steps in each procedure in the correct order.
Create a log to record information about your computer, such as model, serial
numbers, installed options, and configuration information.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components. Perform the procedures
described in this chapter only at an ESD workstation using an antistatic wrist strap and a
conductive foam pad. If such a station isn’t available, you can provide some ESD
protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal part of the
computer chassis.
Installation Precautions
When you install and test the Intel NUC, observe all warnings and cautions in the installation
instructions.
To avoid injury, be careful of:
Sharp pins on connectors
Sharp pins on circuit boards
Rough edges and sharp corners on the chassis
Hot components (such as SSDs, processors, voltage regulators, and heat sinks)
Damage to wires that could cause a short circuit
Observe Safety and Regulatory Requirements
If you don’t follow these instructions, you increase your safety risk and the possibility of
noncompliance with regional laws and regulations.
