Attaching the Wrist Strap

Caution: The internal components are extremely sensitive to static electricity; always
wear the wrist strap when you handle parts inside your workstation.
To attach the wrist strap, follow these steps:
1. Unroll the first two folds of the band (see A in Figure 5-5).
2. Wrap the exposed adhesive side firmly around your wrist (B), unroll the rest of the
band, then peel the liner from the copper foil at the opposite end.
3. Attach the copper foil to any exposed electrical ground, such as a metal part of the
workstation (C).
