The components inside your computer are extremely sensitive to static 
electricity, also known as electrostatic discharge (ESD).

Before opening the computer case, follow these guidelines:

■

Turn off your computer.

■

Wear a grounding wrist strap (available at most electronics stores) and 
attach it to a bare metal part of your computer.

■

Touch a bare metal surface on the back of the computer.

■

Unplug the power cord and the modem and network cables.

Before working with computer components, follow these guidelines:

■

Avoid static-causing surfaces such as carpeted floors, plastic, and packing 
foam.

■

Remove components from their antistatic bags only when you are ready 
to use them. Do not lay components on the outside of antistatic bags 
because only the inside of the bags provide electrostatic protection.

■

Always hold expansion cards by their edges or their metal mounting 
brackets. Avoid touching the edge connectors and components on the 
cards. Never slide expansion cards or components over any surface.

ESD can permanently damage electrostatic 
discharge-sensitive components in your computer. Prevent 
ESD damage by following ESD guidelines every time you 
open the computer case.

To avoid exposure to dangerous electrical voltages and 
moving parts, turn off your computer and unplug the power 
cord and modem and network cables before opening the 
case.

To prevent risk of electric shock, do not insert any object 
into the vent holes of the power supply.
