Maintenance Safety

• DO NOT use aerosol cleaners. Follow the instructions in
the Service Manual for proper cleaning methods.
• DO NOT use this machine near water, wet locations, or
outdoors.
• NEVER attempt any maintenance function that is not
specified in the Service Manual, or as directed by an
authorized service representative.
• NEVER spill liquid of any kind on the machine.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection Program

The purpose of the Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Protection Program is to preserve the inherent reliability
and quality of electronic components that are handled by
field service personnel. This program is implemented as a
direct result of advances in micro circuitry technology, as
well as a new acknowledgment of the magnitude of the
ESD problem in the electronics industry today.
This program will reduce field service costs that are
charged to PWB failures. Approximately 90% of all PWB
failures that are ESD-related do not occur immediately.
Using the ESD Field Service Kit will eliminate these
delayed failures and intermittent problems caused by
ESD. This will improve product reliability and reduce
callbacks.
The ESD Field Service Kit should be used whenever
Printed Wiring Boards or ESD-sensitive components are
being handled. This includes activities like replacing or
reseating circuit boards or connectors. The kit should also
be used to prevent additional damage when circuit boards
are returned for repair.
