Chapter 6. Safety, Use, and Care Information

- Wherever possible, ground your computer to facilitate safe

electrostatic discharge.

Note:

Not all such appliances cause a significant electrostatic charge.

When you handle options or CRUs, or perform any work inside the

computer, take the following precautions to avoid static-electricity

damage:

- Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build

up around you.

- Always handle components carefully. Handle adapters, memory

modules, and other circuit boards by the edges. Never touch exposed

circuitry.

- Prevent others from touching components.

- When you install a static-sensitive option or CRU, touch the static-

protective package containing the part to a metal expansion-slot cover

or other unpainted metal surface on the computer for at least two

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

- Whenever possible, remove the static-sensitive part from the static-

protective packaging and install the part without setting it down.

When this is not possible, place the static-protective packaging on a

smooth, level surface and place the part on it.

- Do not place the part on the computer cover or other metal surface.
