Even

though

this

kind

of

electrostatic

discharge

(ESD)

is

the

opposite

of

a

discharge

from

your

body

or

clothing

to

the

computer,

it

poses

the

same

risk

of

a

computer

malfunction.

Your

computer

is

designed

and

manufactured

to

minimize

any

effects

of

electrostatic

charge.

An

electrostatic

charge

above

a

certain

limit,

however,

can

increase

the

risk

of

ESD.

Therefore,

when

using

the

computer

close

to

an

appliance

that

can

produce

negative

ions,

give

special

attention

to

the

following:

Avoid

directly

exposing

your

computer

to

the

air

from

an

appliance

that

can

produce

negative

ions.

Keep

your

computer

and

peripherals

as

far

as

possible

from

such

an

appliance.

Wherever

possible,

ground

your

computer

to

facilitate

safe

electrostatic

discharge.

Note:

Not

all

such

appliances

cause

a

significant

electrostatic

charge.
