You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge
(ESD):
• When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, do not
remove the component from the antistatic packing material until you are ready to
install the component in your system. Just before unwrapping the antistatic
packaging, be sure to discharge static electricity from your body.
• When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic container or
packaging.
• Handle all sensitive components in a static-safe area. If possible, use antistatic floor
pads and workbench pads and an antistatic grounding strap.
NOTE: Your system may also include circuit cards or other components that contain
batteries. These batteries must also be disposed of in a battery deposit site. For
information about such batteries, refer to the documentation for the specific card or
component.
