Removing The System Covers - Epson Powerspan 2 User Manual

If you are not properly grounded, you could conduct static
electricity and damage your equipment. Be sure to ground
yourself by touching the inside of the computer's back
panel before you touch any of the internal components.
Refrain from shifting your feet once you have grounded
yourself-it is easy to pick up static electricity from
carpeting
Do not touch any components except those that this
manual instructs you to touch.
When disconnecting cables from sockets on the computer's
main system board or any devices (such as disk drives),
avoid pulling on the cable; grasp the plastic connector to
remove it from the socket.
When plugging a connector or component into a socket, be
sure to position it correctly. Carefully align any holes in the
connector with the corresponding pins in the socket before
you push in the connector. Otherwise, you can severely
damage the equipment.
If you install optional equipment in the computer, keep the
option's original packing materials in case you need to
remove or transport the option later.
Always replace the computer's covers before you turn on
the power or the computer may overheat.
