1-4 HANDLING THE MOTHERBOARD

To avoid damage to your motherboard, please follow these simple rules while
unpacking:
Before handling the motherboard, ground yourself by grasping an
unpainted portion of the system's metal chassis.
Remove the motherboard from its anti-static packaging. Hold the
motherboard by the edges and avoid touching its components.
Check the motherboard for damage. If any chip appears loose, press
carefully to set it firmly in its socket.
Warning: Do not apply power if the motherboard appears
damaged. If there is damage to the board, contact your dealer
immediately.

1-5 ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PRECAUTIONS

components. Electrostatic discharge can easily damage the components. Note

or air-conditioned environment.
To protect your equipment from electrostatic discharge, take the following
precautions:
Do not remove the anti-static packaging until you are ready to install.
Ground yourself before removing any system component from its protective
anti-static packaging. (To ground yourself, grasp the expansion slot covers or
other unpainted portions of the computer chassis).
Frequently ground yourself while working or use a grounding strap.
Handle the motherboard by its edges and avoid touching its
components.
