Handling static-sensitive devices

Attention: Static electricity can damage the server and other electronic devices.

To avoid damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages

until you are ready to install them.

To reduce the possibility of damage from electrostatic discharge, observe the

following precautions:

v Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around

you.

v The use of a grounding system is recommended. For example, wear an

electrostatic-discharge wrist strap, if one is available. Always use an

electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding system when working inside

the server with the power on.

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

v Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed circuitry.

v Do not leave the device where others can handle and damage it.

v While the device is still in its static-protective package, touch it to an unpainted

metal part on the outside of the server for at least 2 seconds. This drains static

electricity from the package and from your body.

v Remove the device from its package and install it directly into the server without

setting down the device. If it is necessary to set down the device, put it back into

its static-protective package. Do not place the device on the server cover or on a

metal surface.

v Take additional care when handling devices during cold weather. Heating reduces

indoor humidity and increases static electricity.

Returning a device or component

If you are instructed to return a device or component, follow all packaging

instructions, and use any packaging materials for shipping that are supplied to you.
