• Remove the device from its package and install it directly into your system, without putting it down. If it
is necessary to put the device down, place it onto its static-protective bag. (If your device is an adapter,
place it component-side up.) Do not place the device onto the cover of the system or onto a metal table.
• Take additional care when you handle devices during cold weather. Indoor humidity tends to decrease
in cold weather, causing an increase in static electricity.
