ESD precautions
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your processor, disk drives,
and other components. Electrostatic-sensitive components may be
identified by the following sticker:
Always observe the following precautions before you install a server
component labelled as an ESD:
•
You must always discharge static build up by wearing a wrist
grounding strap and attach it to a metal part of the server before
handling components or by touching a grounded object before
working .
If a wrist strap is not available, maintain contact with the server
throughout any procedure requiring ESD protection.
•
The equipment and tools you use must be free of static charge.
•
Remove the power plug from the power socket before inserting or
removing components containing ESDs.
•
Always hold components with ESDs by their edges.
•
Do not touch any exposed pins or conductors on a component.
•
Use a grounding cable designed for this purpose to connect
yourself to the system unit as you install components.
•
Do not remove a component from its protective packaging until
you are ready to install it.
•
Place all components on a static-safe base.
