Static

electricity

prevention

Static

electricity,

although

harmless

to

you,

can

seriously

damage

computer

components

and

options.

Improper

handling

of

static-sensitive

parts

can

cause

damage

to

the

part.

When

you

unpack

an

option

or

CRU,

do

not

open

the

static-protective

package

containing

the

part

until

the

instructions

direct

you

to

install

it.

When

you

handle

options

or

CRUs,

or

perform

any

work

inside

the

computer,

take

the

following

precautions

to

avoid

static-electricity

damage:

v

Limit

your

movement.

Movement

can

cause

static

electricity

to

build

up

around

you.

v

Always

handle

components

carefully.

Handle

adapters,

memory

modules,

and

other

circuit

boards

by

the

edges.

Never

touch

exposed

circuitry.

v

Prevent

others

from

touching

components.

v

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.

v

When

possible,

remove

the

static-sensitive

part

from

the

static-sensitive

packaging

and

is

not

possible,

place

the

static-sensitive

packaging

on

a

smooth,

level

surface

and

place

the

part

on

it.

v

Do

not

place

the
