Electrostatic Discharge Precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage to add-in modules. Always observe
the following precautions when installing or handling an add-in module or any
board assembly.
1) Do not remove unit from its protective packaging until ready to install it.
2) Wear an ESD wrist grounding strap before handling any module or com-
ponent. If without a wrist strap, maintain grounded contact with the sys-
tem unit throughout any procedure requiring ESD protection.
3) Hold boards by the edges only; do not touch the electronic components or
gold connectors.
4) After removal, always place the boards on a grounded, static free surface,
ESD pad or in a proper ESD bag. Do not slide the board over any sur-
face.
