1.6 Safety Precautions
Follow these simple precautions to protect yourself from harm and the
products from damage.
1. To avoid electric shock, always disconnect the power from your PC
chassis before you work on it. Don't touch any components on the CPU
card or other cards while the PC is on.
2. Disconnect power before making any configuration changes. The sud-
den rush of power as you connect a jumper or install a card may damage
sensitive electronic components.
3. Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before you touch
your CPU card. Be particularly careful not to touch the chip connectors.
