Preface

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions

ESD can damage processors, circuit cards, and other electronic components. Always observe the

following precautions before installing a system component.

1. Do not remove a component from its protective packaging until ready to install.

2. Wear a wrist grounding strap and attach it to a metal part of the system unit before handling

components. If a wrist strap is not available, maintain contact with the system unit throughout

any procedure requiring ESD protection.

WARNING! INTEGRATED CIRCUITS (ICS) ARE EXTREMELY SUSCEPTIBLE TO ELECTROSTATIC

DISCHARGE. UNLESS YOU ARE A QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNICIAN WHO USES TOOLS AND

TECHNIQUES THAT CONFORM TO ACCEPTED INDUSTRY PRACTICES, DO NOT HANDLE ICS.

The ESD warning label appears on packages and storage bags that contain

static-sensitive products and components.
