Safety Instructions
Antistatic Precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) results from the buildup of static
electricity and can cause computer components to fail. Electrostatic
discharge occurs when a person whose body contains a static buildup
touches a computer component.
The equipment may contain static-sensitive devices that are easily
damaged, so proper handling and grounding are essential. Use ESD
precautionary measures when installing parts or cards, and keep the
parts and cards in antistatic packaging when not in use. If possible, use
antistatic floor pads and workbench pads.
When handling components or setting switch options always use an
antistatic wrist strap connected to a grounded equipment frame or
chassis. If a wrist strap is not available, periodically touch an
unpainted metal surface on the equipment. Never use a conductive
tool, such as a screwdriver or a paper clip, to set switches.
Safety Guidelines
The following symbols are used in this manual to draw your attention
to potential hazards. A Caution indicates a hazard to equipment or
data. A Warning indicates a hazard to personnel.
