1.1 Before You Begin

CAUTIONS

The steps in this guide assume you’re familiar with computer terminology and

with the safety practices and regulatory compliance required for using and

modifying computer equipment.

Disconnect the computer from its power source and from any network before

performing any of the steps described in this guide.

Failure to disconnect power, telecommunications links, or networks before you open

the computer or perform any procedures can result in personal injury or equipment

damage. Some circuitry on the board can continue to operate even though the front

panel power button is off.

Follow these guidelines before you begin:

•Always follow the steps in each procedure in the correct order.

•Create a log to record information about your computer, such as model,

serial numbers, installed options, and configuration information.

•Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components. Perform the

procedures described in this chapter only at an ESD workstation using an

antistatic wrist strap and a conductive foam pad. If such a station isn’t

available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist

strap and attaching it to a metal part of the computer chassis.

1.2 Installation Precautions

When you install and test the Intel NUC, observe all warnings and cautions in the

installation instructions.

To avoid injury, be careful of:

•Sharp pins on connectors

•Sharp pins on circuit boards

•Rough edges and sharp corners on the chassis

•Hot components (such as SSDs, processors, voltage regulators, and heat sinks)

•Damage to wires that could cause a short circuit

Observe all warnings and cautions that instruct you to refer computer servicing

to qualified technical personnel.

1.3 Observe Safety and Regulatory Requirements

If you don’t follow these instructions, you increase your safety risk and the possibility

of noncompliance with regional laws and regulations.
