Getting Started

The following important information must be adhered to for proper removal and
replacement of all Hewlett-Packard parts.

Safety Warnings

WARNING Removing the device cover may expose sharp edges in the equipment
chassis. To avoid injury, use care when installing customer add-on
devices.
NOTE Before performing removal/replacement procedures, position the workstation
on a cushioned flat, stable surface, such as a table top or workbench.
NOTE Installing the recommended HP replacement part in your B Class and C
Class workstation does not affect the regulatory and safety classifications or
approvals listed in the original owner's guide.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions

To prevent damage to the B Class and C Class workstation, observe all of the following
ESD precautions while performing removal and replacement procedures:
• Remove all ESD-generating materials from the work area in which you will remove and
replace the workstation field replaceable unit(s).
• Open the ESD materials provided with the replacement part kit. Unfold the black
conductive sheeting (antistatic mat) and place it under a corner of the workstation.
• Wear a static strap to ensure that any accumulated electrostatic charge is discharged
from your body to ground. Attach the static-grounding wrist strap by following the
instructions on the package. Attach the sticky end of the wrist strap to bare metal on
the rear panel of the workstation.
• Connect all equipment together, including the static-free mat, static strap, clips
attached to the wrist strap, nodes, and peripheral units.
• Keep uninstalled printed circuit boards in their protective antistatic bags.
• Once you have removed printed circuit boards from their protective antistatic bags,
handle the printed circuit boards by their edges only.
