Also follow these static electricity precautions:
■ Avoid static-causing surfaces such as plastic and styrofoam in your work
area.
■ Remove the parts from their antistatic bag or container only when you
are ready to use them. Do not lay parts on the outside of an antistatic
bag or container because only the inside provides antistatic protection.
■ Always hold cards by their edges and their metal mounting brackets.
Avoid touching components on the cards and the edge connectors that
connect to expansion slots. Never slide cards or other parts over any
surface.
