Avoiding Damage
CAUTION: Electrostatic Discharge!
Electrostatic discharge may damage or destroy the network adapter.
To avoid damaging the network adapter:
Put on an antistatic wrist strap (electrically conductive) and connect it to the com-
puter chassis before handling the network adapter.
Do not connect the wrist straps to the ground terminal of the power supply! Faulty
wiring could make this terminal live and potentially lethal.
If you need to place the network adapter somewhere after removing it from the
antistatic bag, make sure that you place it on the antistatic bag and on a level sur-
face. Do not place the network adapter on the computer cover or on any other
metal surface.
Do not touch any circuits on the network adapter or any of its port contacts.
