Caution
■
The DIMM is easily affected by static electricity. Handle the
DIMM after making your body contact with a metallic frame
section of the server to discharge the static electricity on
your body. Do not make bare hands contact with terminals
and components on the DIMM. In addition, do not put the
DIMM on a desk directly. See "Static Precautions" for details
of the static electricity.
■
Do not use any DIMM not approved by NEC. If an unap-
proved third party's DIMM is installed in the server, not only
the DIMM but also the server itself may be defected. You will
be charged by any repair of a malfunction or defect caused
by such a device within the warranty period.
