SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Technician Notes
Only authorized technicians should attempt to repair this
equipment.
Before installing this system, carefully read all the manuals
included with the system.
All repair procedures allow only module replacement. Because of
the complexity of the individual boards and sub-assemblies, no
one should attempt to make repairs at the component level or
make modifications to any printed wiring board. Improper repairs
can create a safety hazard.
To reduce the risk of personal injury from electric shock and
hazardous energy levels, do not exceed the level of repairs
specified in these procedures.
The system is designed to be electrically grounded. To ensure
proper operation, plug the AC power cord into a properly grounded
AC outlet only.
Electrostatic Discharge Precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage static sensitive devices
or micro circuitry. Proper packaging and grounding techniques are
required to prevent damage.
Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they
arrive at a static free work area.
Use a wrist strap connected to the work surface as well as
properly grounded tools and equipment.
Keep the area free of nonconductive materials such as ordinary
plastic tools and foam packaging.
Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
Always place drives with printed circuit board (PCB) assembly-side
down.
