Storing Modules and Components

Caution: Failure to store electronic modules and components correctly may lead
to damage of these items.

Retain the packaging in which a module or component was shipped, and
use this packaging to store the item. Modules are shipped in antistatic
bags and protective packaging. Components, such as transceivers and
NVS cards, are shipped in antistatic plastic containers within an antistatic
padded box.

Follow these guidelines for storing modules and components:

Store each module in a separate antistatic bag.

Store components in an antistatic plastic container. Some of these
containers can accommodate several components in separate
compartments.

Do not store multiple modules or components in an antistatic bag or
container where they can touch other items.

(Optional) Store the item in its antistatic bag or container within the
protective packaging or padded box that the item was shipped in.

Cleaning the System

Warning: Do not insert any metal object, such as a screwdriver, or place your hand
into an open slot or the backplane when the E-series router is on. Remove jewelry
(including rings, necklaces, and watches) before working on equipment that is
connected to power lines. These actions prevent electric shock and serious burns.

Caution: When cleaning the system, wear an antistatic wrist strap connected to
the system’s ESD grounding jack. This action helps to protect modules from
damage by electrostatic discharge.

Dust is attracted to the side of the system on which the air intake vent is
situated. Clean this side of the system with a dry cloth every few weeks to
prevent excessive accumulation of dust. This cleaning will maintain the
efficiency of the cooling system and prevent damage to electronic
components.
