Safety notes
V CAUTION!
● Do not install unsupported processors. For further information on
supported processors, refer to section "Basic information" on
page 485.
● Circuit boards and soldered parts of internal options are exposed and
can be damaged by static electricity. Always discharge static build-up
(e.g. by touching a grounded object) before handling electrostatic-
sensitive devices (ESDs)
● Do not touch the circuitry on boards or soldered parts. Hold circuit
boards by their metallic areas or edges.
● When removing or installing processors, be careful not to touch or
bend the spring contacts on the processor sockets.
● Never touch the underside of the processors. Even minor soiling such
as grease from the skin can impair the processor’s operation or
destroy the processors.
