Preventing static electricity discharge
The components inside your notebook are extremely sensitive to static
electricity, also known as electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Before replacing the keyboard, follow these guidelines:

■ Wear a grounding wrist strap (available at most electronics stores) and
attach it to a bare metal part of your workbench or other grounded
connection.
■ Touch a bare metal surface on your workbench or other grounded object.
Warning ESD can permanently damage electrostatic
discharge-sensitive components in your notebook.
Prevent ESD damage by following ESD guidelines every
time you replace the keyboard.
Warning To avoid exposure to dangerous electrical voltages and
moving parts, turn off your notebook and unplug the power
cord and modem and network cables before replacing the
keyboard.
Warning To prevent risk of electric shock, do not insert any object
into the vent holes of the notebook.
