1.7 Safety Precautions
Warning! Always completely disconnect the power cord
from your chassis whenever you work with the
hardware. Do not make connections while the
power is on. Sensitive electronic components
can be damaged by sudden power surges. Only
experienced
electronics personnel should open the PC
chassis.
Caution! Always ground yourself to remove any static
charge before touching the CPU card. Modern
electronic devices are very sensitive to
static electric charges. As a safety precau-
tion, use a grounding wrist strap at all
times. Place all electronic components on a
static-dissipative surface or in a static-
shielded bag when they are not in the chas-
sis.
