Safety Information
To ensure your personal safety and the safety of your equipment:
● Keep your work area and the computer clean and clear of debris.
● Before opening the system cabinet, unplug the power cord.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Caution: ESD can damage electronic components when they are improperly handled, and
can result in total or intermittent failures. Always follow ESD-prevention procedures when
removing and replacing components.
To p re ven t E SD d ama ge :
● Use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes skin contact. Connect the
equipment end of the strap to an unpainted metal surface on the chassis.
● If a wrist strap is not available, ground yourself by touching the metal chassis before
handling the controller or any other part of the computer.
● Avoid touching the controller against your clothing. The wrist strap protects components
from ESD on the body only.
● Handle the controller by its bracket or edges only. Avoid touching the printed circuit board
or the connectors.
● Put the controller down only on an antistatic surface such as the bag supplied in your kit.
● If you are returning the controller to Adaptec, put it back in its antistatic bag immediately.
