Note
When Installing Internal Options
Because
optional items
can
occasionally have
unforeseen
interactions, Commodore strongly
recommends
that
new expansion devices be
tested
first
without
any
other
expansion devices connected.
If
you
experience problems
after
installing
any
device,
try
removing
any
other
optional
items
from
the
system,
and
test
the
new
item
by
itself,
then
in
various
combinations
with
other
items. Often a solution
to
the
problem
can
be found
when
the
interacting
items
are
identified.
ESD Precautions
Integrated
circuit
(lC) chips
are
sensitive to
static
electricity.
When
handling
electronic components containing IC chips, including
expansion
boards
and
RAM modules, always
take
precautions to
reduce
the
chances
of
electrostatic discharge (ESD)
harming
the
components.
Touching a
nearby
grounded
metal
surface before touching a
component
drains
static
electricity, reducing
the
likelihood
of
ESD
damage.
Removing the Cover
To
remove
the
Amiga's cover:
1.
Use
a
Phillips-head
screwdriver to remove
the
two screws
at
the
upper
corners
of
the
rear
of
the
main
unit.
2.
Grasp
the
cover on
both
sides
as
illustrated
in
Figure 3-1,
and
slide
it
backward
and
up.
