Precautions
Computer components and electronic circuit boards can be damaged by
discharges of static electricity. Working on the computers that are still
connected to a power supply can be extremely dangerous.
Follow the guidelines below to avoid damage to your computer or yourself:
▪
Always disconnect the unit from the power outlet whenever you are
working inside the case.
▪
If possible, wear a grounded wrist strap when you are working inside
the computer case. Alternatively, discharge any static electricity by
touching the bare metal chassis of the unit case, or the bare metal body
of any other grounded appliance.
▪
Hold electronic circuit boards by the edges only. Do not touch the
components on the board unless it is necessary to do so. Don’t flex or
stress the circuit board.
▪
Leave all components inside the static-proof packaging that they
shipped with until they are ready for installation.
▪
Use correct screws and do not over tighten screws.
