ESD-sensitive components

The electronic boards contain electrostatic sensitive devices. These can be easily
destroyed if not handled properly. If you have to work with electronic modules, please note:
 You should only touch electronic modules if absolutely necessary.
 If you do have to touch modules, your body must be electrically discharged first.
 Boards must not come into contact with highly insulating materials (such as plastic
 Modules must only be set down on conductive surfaces.
 Boards and components should only be stored and transported in conductive packaging
 If the packaging material is not conductive, the modules must be wrapped with a
