ESD can damage processors, circuit cards, and other electronic components. Always
observe the following precautions before installing a system component.

1. Do not remove a component from its protective packaging until ready to install

it.

2. Wear a wrist grounding strap and attach it to an ESD connector or a metal part

of the system unit before handling components. If a wrist strap is not available,
maintain contact with the system unit throughout any procedure requiring ESD
protection.

An ESD warning label appears on packages and storage bags
that contain static-sensitive products and components.
