When Using Your System
Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge
NOTICE: Only a certified service technician should perform repairs on your system. Damage
due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty.
Static electricity can harm delicate components inside your system. To prevent static
damage, discharge static electricity from your body before you touch any of the electronic
components, such as the microprocessor. You can do so by periodically touching an
unpainted metal surface on the chassis.
You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic
discharge (ESD):
•
When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, do not
remove the component from the antistatic packing material until you are ready to
install the component in your system. Just before unwrapping the antistatic
packaging, be sure to discharge static electricity from your body.
•
When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic container or
packaging.
•
Handle all sensitive components in a static-safe area. If possible, use antistatic floor
pads and workbench pads and an antistatic grounding strap.
NOTE: Your system may also include circuit cards or other components that contain batteries. These
batteries must also be disposed of in a battery deposit site. For information about such batteries,
refer to the documentation for the specific card or component.
