Special Handling and Unpacking Instructions

Electronic boards are sensitive to static electricity. Therefore, care must be
taken during all handling operations and inspections with this product, in order
to ensure product integrity at all times.

Do not handle this product out of its protective enclosure while it is not
being worked with, or unless it is otherwise protected.

Whenever possible, unpack or pack this product only at EOS/ESD safe
work stations.

Where safe work stations are not guaranteed, it is important for the user
to be electrically discharged before touching the product with his/her
hands or tools. This is most easily done by touching a metal part of your
system housing.

Particularly, observe standard anti-static precautions when changing pig-
gybacks, ROM devices, jumper settings etc. If the product contains bat-
teries for RTC or memory back-up, ensure that the board is not placed on
conductive surfaces, including anti-static plastics or sponges. They can
cause short circuits and damage the batteries or tracks on the board.
