Take Anti-static Precautions

Static electricity can damage the components inside a computer or on a printed circuit card. To reduce the
possibility of electrostatic discharge:

Turn off power to the computer.

CAUTION: Physically remove the power cord from the system and wait 15 to 30 seconds for

standby power to dissipate. Damage can occur to add-in components if power is not
physically removed from the system during installation procedures.

Touch the metal chassis of the computer to drain off any static electricity before touching
the card.

Wear a properly connected grounding wrist strap when handling the card or working in
the computer.

Do not wear wool or polyester clothing.

Work in an area with a relative humidity of at least 50 percent.

Keep the card in the anti-static bag until you are ready to install it.

Handle the card as little as possible and only by the edges.
