Electrostatic Precautions

CAUTION: This product contains components that are highly sensitive to
electrostatic discharge. To protect these components from damage and to
maintain product reliability, take the following precautions when handling
the circuit boards:

• Handle all circuit boards in a static-protected area capable of controlling

static charge on conductive materials, people, and nonconductive
materials. Static-protected areas include nonstatic table tops and nonstatic
floor mats.

• Leave the board in its ESD static-shielded bag until you are ready to install

the board.

• Wear ESD grounding straps when handling boards outside of their ESD

static-shielded bags.

• Handle the circuit boards only by the edges. Avoid touching the printed

wires on the back of the circuit board as much as possible.
