Cautions When Installing an Expansion Board

To avoid the risk of damage to internal components that can be caused by static electricity, please carefully observe the following whenever you handle the board.

When handling the board, grasp it only by its edges. Avoid touching any of the electronic components or connectors.

Save the bag in which the board was originally shipped, and put the board back into it whenever you need to store or transport it.

Use a Phillips screwdriver that is suitable for the size of the screw (a number 2 screwdriver). If an unsuitable screwdriver is used, the head of the screw may be stripped.

To remove a screw, rotate the screwdriver counter-clockwise. To tighten the screws, rotate the screwdriver clockwise.

When installing Expansion Board, remove only the specified screws.
