Handling Precautions
HP Series 6000
If you do not protect your rewritable optical disk drive and
controller against electrostatic discharge, you may damage
them and void your warranty.
A static charge of 39,000 volts can be generated on a
carpeted floor. Such a voltage exceeds the limits of the
rewritable optical disk drive and controller and can cause
unsuccessful operation of the product.
To ensure continuously successful operation of the
rewritable optical disk drive in a carpeted office
environment, Hewlett-Packard recommends the use of
anti-static mats and anti-static carpets with this product.
Refer to the Hewlett-Packard Computer Users Catalog,
part number 5953-2450D, for a complete listing of static
control equipment, including anti-static mats and carpets.
Handle the rewritable optical disk drive and controller
with care. The rewritable optical disk drive and
controller are susceptible to mechanical shock and
vibration until they are secured into the mass storage
system chassis. Never set the rewritable optical disk
drive upside-down or it will be damaged.
