Handling static-sensitive devices

Attention: Static electricity can damage electronic devices and your system. To avoid damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages until you are ready to install them.

To reduce the possibility of electrostatic discharge (ESD), observe the following precautions:

vLimit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around you.

vHandle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or its frame.

vDo not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed printed circuitry.

vDo not leave the device where others can handle and possibly damage the device.

vWhile the device is still in its static-protective package, touch it to an unpainted metal part of the system unit for at least two seconds. This drains static electricity from the package and from your body.

vRemove the device from its package and install it directly into your system unit without setting it down. If it is necessary to set the device down, place it in its static-protective package. Do not place the device on your system unit cover or on a metal table. Take additional care when handling devices during cold weather because heating reduces indoor humidity and increases static electricity.
