Information about boards
To prevent damage to the system board or the components and conductors on it, please take great care when you insert or remove boards. Take great care to ensure that extension boards are slotted in straight, without damaging components or conductors on the system board, or any other components, for example EMI spring contacts.
Be especially careful with the locking mechanisms (catches, centring pins etc.) when you replace the system board or components on it, for example memory modules or processors.
Never use sharp objects (screwdrivers) for leverage.
Boards with electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) are identifiable by the label shown.
When you handle boards fitted with ESDs, you must, under all circumstances, observe the following points:
You must always discharge static build up (e.g. by touching a grounded object) before working.
The equipment and tools you use must be free of static charges.
Remove the power plug from the mains supply before inserting or removing boards containing ESDs.
Always hold boards with ESDs by their edges.
Never touch pins or conductors on boards fitted with ESDs.
