INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Section 1: General Information

ESD — electrostatic discharge — is a primary source of:

• product downtime

• lost productivity

• costly repairs

While one cannot feel a static charge of less than 3,500 volts, as few as 30 volts can damage or destroy

essential components in electronic equipment.

• Always look for an ESD warning label before doing any procedure involving static-sensitive

components such as CIRCUIT BOARDS. All static-sensitive components are marked with bright

graphic labels, which frequently include instructions. Follow all label instructions.

• Wear a grounding strap when handling static-sensitive components. Always make certain that the

clip remains attached to a properly grounded, unpainted, clean surface.

• Repair static-sensitive components at an ESD-protected work station or use a portable grounding

mat. For help in setting up an ESD-protected work station, contact your Kodak representative.

• When moving static-sensitive components from one area to another, insert and transport the

components in ESD-protective packaging. Transparent antistatic bags are available from a variety

of manufacturers and will help shield components from ESD damage.
