Handling Static Sensitive Devices

When you handle options and other computer components, take these precautions:

Ÿ

Limit your movement. Movement can cause

static electricity to build

up

around

 

you.

 

 

 

 

Ÿ

Always handle components

carefully. Handle adapters and memory-module

kits

by

 

the edges. Never touch

any exposed

circuitry.

 

 

ŸWhen you are installing a new option, touch the static-protective package containing the option to the mounting bracket on the controller card for at least

seconds. This reduces static electricity from the package and from your body.

ŸWhen possible, remove the option and install it directly in the controller without setting the option down. When this is not possible, place the static-protective

package

that

the

option

came in

on a

smooth,

level surface

and place the option

on

it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ÿ Do

not

place

the

option

on the

printer

cover

or other metal

surface.
