Atari Lynx FlashCard User Manual page 5

Important: ESD
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) is an unwelcome phenomenon in electronics.
Describing ESD and its effects in detail would go beyond the scope of this manual. There
are other sources referring to this issue; Wikipedia being one of them.
It is very important that you do NOT touch the FlashCard when you are electrostatically
charged.
You should always discharge yourself of any static prior to touching the FlashCard. You
can do this by simply touching anything made of metal.
It is best not to touch the components or contacts of your FlashCard.
Important: Use of FlashCard with Lynx I & Lynx II
The FlashCard has been designed for use with a Lynx II.
You can also use the FlashCard with a Lynx I. However, due to the enclosed cartridge slot
of the Lynx I, there is a danger of damaging the Card by plugging and unplugging it, as
well as by the opening and closing of the cartridge door with the Card inserted.
I do not recommend the use of the FlashCard in an unmodified Lynx 1!
However, if you insist on using the FlashCard with your Lynx I, you should remove the door
permanently, prior to inserting the FlashCard. Note: No documentation will be provided to
assist you in removing the door.
Naturally, every change you make to your Lynx is done at your own risk.
It is always a good idea to think before you position your screwdriver. ;-)
Important: Miscellaneous
Use the Lynx FlashCard at your own risk. The creators of the FlashCard assume no
liability or responsibility due to damage. No warranty is included with this product or the
documentation. The FlashCard is not intended for use in any way that would violate the
law.
