Esd Precautions - AXIOMTEK PICO840 User Manual

ESD Precautions

Computer boards have integrated circuits sensitive to static electricity. To prevent chipsets
from electrostatic discharge damage, please take care of the following jobs with precautions:
 Do not remove boards or integrated circuits from their anti-static packaging until you are
ready to install them.
 Before holding the board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of the system
unit chassis for a few seconds. It discharges static electricity from your body.
 Wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most electronic component stores, when
handling boards and components.
