2.7 Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
CAUTION
Perform the procedures in this product guide only at an electrostatic discharge (ESD) workstation, because the
server components can be extremely sensitive to ESD. If no such station is available, you can reduce the risk
of electrostatic discharge ESD damage by doing the following.
Wear an antistatic wrist strap and attach it to a metal part of the server.
Touch the metal on the server chassis before touching the server components.
Keep part of your body in contact with the metal server chassis to dissipate the static charge while
handling the components.
Avoid moving around unnecessarily.
Hold the server components (especially boards) only by the edges.
Place the server components on a grounded, static-free surface.
Use a conductive foam pad if available but not the component wrapper.
Do not slide the components over any surface.
2.8 Cooling and Airflow
CAUTION
For proper cooling and airflow, always install all access covers before turning on the system.
Operating the system for longer than five minutes without the covers in place can cause overheating and
damage to system components.
2.9 Battery
CAUTION
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
