Precautions
CAUTION
The following practices minimize possible damage to circuit board assemblies resulting from
electrostatic discharge or improper insertion:
•Keep circuit board assemblies in their original containers until ready for use.
•Avoid having plastic, vinyl, or Styrofoam in the work area.
•Wear an anti-static wrist strap.
•Discharge personal static before handling circuit board assemblies.
• Remove and insert circuit board assemblies with care.
• When removing circuit board assemblies, handle only by non-conductive surfaces. Never
touch open-edge connectors except at a static-free workstation*.
•Minimize handling of circuit board assemblies.
•Do not slide circuit board assemblies over any surface.
• Insert circuit board assemblies with the proper orientation.
