Grounding Methods
If installation instructions direct you to unplug the computer or an
optional docking base, unplug it
after
being properly grounded
and
before
removing the cover. Use one or more of the following
grounding methods.
■
Touch the unpainted metal surface or lug nuts on the
connectors on the back of the computer or docking base.
Avoid touching connector pins.
■
Touch an exterior unpainted metal surface of equipment that is
connected to an electrical outlet by a grounding plug.
■
Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to the computer
chassis. Wrist straps are flexible grounding straps with a
minimum of 1 megohm
±
10 percent resistance in the ground
cords. To provide proper ground, wear the strap snug against
the skin.
NOTE:
If you need more information about static electricity or
assistance with product installation, contact your Compaq
authorized dealer, reseller, or service provider.
