ESD Precautions

Integrated circuits on computer boards are sensitive to static electricity. To

avoid damaging chips from electrostatic discharge, observe the following

precautions:

• Do not remove boards or integrated circuits from their anti-static

packaging until you are ready to install them.

• Before handling a board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted

portion of the system unit chassis for a few seconds. This helps to

discharge any static electricity on your body.

• Wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most electronic component

stores, when handling boards and components.
