Handling Precautions

CAUTION
High potential static charge can cause damage to the integrated circuits on the board. Before
handling any mainboard outside of its protective packaging, ensure that there is no static
electric charge on your body.
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or
equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
♦ Keep the board in its anti-static bag until you are ready to install it.
♦ Protect your board form static electricity by well grounding of your body and the equipment during the
installation, such as wearing a grounded wrist strap.
♦ Always handle the board by its edges.
♦ Do not touch with the components on the boards, add-on cards and modules, or the "gold finger"
connectors going to be plugged into the expansion slot. It is best to handle system components by their
mounting bracket.
♦ Ensure the system power is completely turn-off before doing any installation work.
