Information about boards
Take care with the locking mechanisms (catches and centring pins) when you are replacing the
system board or components on the system board.
To prevent damage to the system board or the components and conductors on it, please take care
when you insert or remove boards. Make sure expansion boards are inserted straightly.
Never use sharp objects (screwdrivers) for leverage.
Boards with electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) are identifiable by the
label shown.
When you handle boards fitted with ESDs, you must, under all
circumstances, observe the following points:
· You must statically discharge yourself before working with boards (e.g.
by touching a grounded object).
· The equipment and tools you use must be free of static charges.
· Pull out the power plug before inserting or removing boards.
· Always hold boards with ESDs by their edges.
· Never touch pins or conductors on boards fitted with ESDs.
