WARNING: For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the ESD grounding
strap. The measurement must be in the range 1 through 10 Mohms.
Averssement Par mesure de sécurité, vériez régulièrement la résistance du bracelet
anstaque. Cee valeur doit être comprise entre 1 et 10 mégohms (Mohms).
• When handling any component that is subject to ESD damage and that is removed from the device,
make sure the equipment end of your ESD wrist strap is aached to the ESD point on the chassis.
If no grounding strap is available, touch the exposed, bare metal of the device to ground yourself
before handling the component.
• Avoid contact between the component that is subject to ESD damage and your clothing. ESD
voltages emied from clothing can damage components.
• When removing or installing a component that is subject to ESD damage, always place it component-
side up on an anstac surface, in an anstac card rack, or in an anstac bag (see Figure 114 on
page 385). If you are returning a component, place it in an anstac bag before packing it.
