Performing the RAM Upgrade 
Caution 
Caution 
A 
static 
charge of almost 40,000 volts can be generated on a 
carpeted floor.  This exceeds 
the 
limits 
of 
these RAM boards 
and 
can cause unsuccessful operation or damage. 
Integrated circuits on printed circuit boards can be damaged by 
electrostatic discharge. 
Use 
the 
following precautions: 
•  Use 
the 
grounding wrist 
strap 
supplied with this upgrade. 
Follow 
the 
instructions printed on 
the 
strap's 
package. 
•  Do not wear clothing subject 
to 
static charge buildup, such 
as wool or synthetic materials. 
•  Do 
not 
handle integrated circuits in carpeted areas. 
•  Do 
not 
remove 
the 
device from 
its 
anti-static 
bag 
until you 
are ready 
to 
install 
it. 
•  Avoid touching circuit leads as much as possible. 
RAM boards must be removed from the highest-numbered slots 
first.
