10 GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
To prevent damage to the devices product and to ensure the correct operations, please read these
precaution statements before installing or troubleshooting any devices.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to service any device unless both qualified and authorised my Minetec
in writing, and as indicated in this document.
• If applicable, disconnect devices from all power sources before cleaning. Do not use liquid or
spray detergents for cleaning. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe screens and a damp cloth to wipe
the exterior of any device. Do not use paper towels to clean the screen.
• Follow the maintenance and cleaning instructions in Maintenance activities on page 49.
• Minimise the exposure of devices to ultraviolet light for extended periods (eg direct sunlight) as
this can damage the device surfaces (eg make them more brittle).
• Keep the device away from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures.
• Do not subject the device to sudden and severe temperature and/or humidity changes. This
could cause moisture condensation inside the unit, which could damage the device. In the event
of moisture condensation, allow the device to dry out completely before use.
10.1 Personal Nodes
To ensure the Personal Node is always on during operations there is no user-operated off switch.
10.2 Charging Docks
When connecting and disconnecting the power cable, ensure that:
• When disconnecting a cable:
o Hold and pull the connector body. Do NOT pull on the cable.
o As you disconnect the connectors, keep them evenly aligned to avoid bending any connector
pins.
• Before connecting a cable, make sure both connectors are correctly oriented and aligned.
10.3 Electrostatic discharge
If authorised to open any device be aware that static electricity discharge can damage system boards
and other electronic components. If working inside the device, you should take the following steps
to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD):
• Handle all components at an ESD workstation. Follow proper ESD procedures, including wearing
ESD wrist straps, to reduce the risk of damage to components. If possible, use antistatic floor
pads, workbench mats and wrist straps.
• When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, do not remove the
component from its antistatic packing until you are ready to install the component. Immediately
before removing the component, ground yourself and the antistatic packaging at an ESD
