If the FPC is horizontal before you grasp it, place your left hand around the faceplate and
your right hand along the bottom edge.
To hold an FPC horizontally (see Figure 105 on page 273):
1. Orient the FPC so that the faceplate faces you. To verify orientation, confirm that the
text on the FPC is right-side up and that the EMI strips are on the right-hand side.
2. Grasp the top edge with your left hand and the bottom edge with your right hand. If
the FPC has heat sinks about midway between the faceplate and connector edge,
place your right hand against the heat sinks.
You can rest the faceplate of the FPC against your body as you carry it.

As you carry the FPC, do not bump it against anything. FPC components are fragile.
Never hold or grasp the FPC anywhere except places as indicated in the documentation.
In particular, never grasp the connector edge, especially at the power connector in the
corner where the connector and bottom edges meet (see Figure 106 on page 273).
