Step 2: Protect Against Electrostatic Discharge
WARNING:
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 switch.

You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD):
•
When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, leave it in the
antistatic package until you are ready to install it. Just before unwrapping the antistatic
package, discharge static electricity from your body.
