Note: Dropping a system board from a height of as little as 6 inches so that it falls flat on a hard bench can subject the accelerometer to as much as 6,000 G's of shock.

Be careful not to drop the system board on a bench top that has a hard surface, such as metal, wood, or composite.

Avoid rough handling of any kind.

At every point in the process, be sure not to drop or stack the system board.

If you put a system board down, be sure to put it only on a padded surface such as an ESD mat or conductive corrugated material.

Note: The fan assembly and the backup battery are attached to the system board.
