1.3 General Safety Information
Read all the notices in this section prior to installing or using the MC-Series System or any of its
components.
1.3.1 Static Sensitive Precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. It occurs
when electronic printed circuit cards are improperly handled and can result in complete or
intermittent failures.
• Prior to handling, shipping, and servicing equipment, always put on a conductive wrist strap
connected to a grounding device to discharge any accumulated static charges. All RFN FRUs
ship with a disposable anti-static wrist strap.
Warning!
Use extreme caution when wearing a conductive wrist strap near sources of high
voltage. The low impedance provided by the wrist strap also increases the danger
of lethal shock should accidental contact with high voltage sources occur.
• Place FRUs only on an anti-static mat when removed from the system. The conductive
surface must be connected to ground through 100kΩ.
• Do not use non-conductive material for packaging FRUs for shipment or storage. Wrap all
FRUs with anti-static (conductive) material. Replacement FRUs shipped from the factory are
packaged in a conductive material.
• If possible, retain all original packing material for future use.
1.3.2 Safety Warnings
Warning!
Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence of a
suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection
authority or an electrician if uncertain that suitable grounding is available.
Warning!
Ultimate disposal of this product should be handled according to all national laws
and regulations.
