  • Page 7: Safety Information

    Safety Information The CY8CKIT-042-BLE Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Pioneer Kit is intended for use as a development platform for hardware or software in a laboratory environment. The board is an open system design, which does not include a shielded enclosure. For this reason, the board may cause interference with other electrical or electronic devices in close proximity.
  • Page 8 Handling Boards CY8CKIT-042-BLE boards are sensitive to ESD. Hold the board only by its edges. After removing the board from its box, place it on a grounded, static-free surface. Use a conductive foam pad if available.
