Cautions When Installing an Expansion Board

• To avoid the risk of damage to internal components that can be caused by static electricity, please carefully observe
the following whenever you handle the board.
• Before you touch the board, always first grasp a metal object (such as a water pipe), so you are sure that any
static electricity you might have been carrying has been discharged.
• When handling the board, grasp it only by its edges. Avoid touching any of the electronic components or
connectors.
• Save the bag in which the board was originally shipped, and put the board back into it whenever you need to
store or transport it.
• Use a Phillips screwdriver that is suitable for the size of the screw (a number 2 screwdriver). If an unsuitable screwdriver
is used, the head of the screw may be stripped.
• To remove a screw, rotate the screwdriver counter-clockwise. To tighten the screws, rotate the screwdriver clockwise.

complete, be sure to replace the cover.
• Be careful not to cut your hand on the opening for installing the board.
