11-14 SPARCstation 5 Model 110 Service Manual • November 1996
Caution – DSIMMs installed in your system must have been specifically designed
to operate in it. Do not remove DSIMMs from a different Sun system and install them
in a SPARCstation 5 system.
Caution – A DSIMM is made of delicate electronic components that are extremely
sensitive to static electricity. Ordinary amounts of static from your clothes or work
environment can destroy a DSIMM. Handle a DSIMM only by the edges. Do not
touch the components on the DSIMM or any metal parts. Wear a grounding strap
before unpacking and during handling of a DSIMM. Do not disconnect the power cord
from the system unit’s power receptacle. The power cord should be left plugged in to a
grounded power outlet. This connection provides the ground path necessary so that
you can safely remove and install DSIMMs and other components. Be sure that the
system unit power is in Standby mode. Check the green light-emitting diode (LED)
at the front of the chassis to be sure it is not lit.
