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.
