Vario L2 General Precautions
Page | 9
Section 3 - General Precautions
The electronics inside the Vario L2 is susceptible to damage by electrostatic discharges. In order to avoid damage,
you should work at an anti-static bench and observe normal anti-static precautions. Wear an anti-static wrist strap
connected to an earth point before opening any packaging.
Where a wrist strap is not available, discharge any static charge you may have built-up by touching an earth point.
Avoid any further movement that could build up another static charge. Touch an earth point from time to time to
avoid further build-up, and remove any items from their anti-static bags only when required
Electro-Static Discharges
If you are going to open up the unit, it is important to realise that the devices on the cards within this unit can be
damaged by static electricity. Bear in mind that the damage caused by static electricity may vary from total
destruction to partial damage, which may not be immediately obvious. This could have an effect on the product's
reliability and warranty. Before opening the chassis, ensure that you take necessary static precautions. Ideally you
should work at an anti-static bench and wear an approved wrist strap or if that is not possible, touch a suitable
ground to discharge any static build up before touching the electronics. This should be repeated if the handling
continues for any length of time.
If it is necessary to remove a board or electronic assembly, place it into an anti-static bag. This will prevent any
static electricity build up damaging the board. Metallised bags are preferred. Do not use black anti-static bags for
any item containing a battery because these tend to be conductive and will discharge the battery.
On-Board Battery
The processor board is fitted with a Lithium battery. Great care should be taken with this type of battery.
If the battery is mistreated in any way there is a very real possibility of fire, explosion, and personal harm.
Under NO circumstances should it be short-circuited, exposed to temperatures in excess of 100C or burnt,
immersed in water, recharged or disassembled.
Expired batteries remain hazardous and must be disposed of in a safe manner, according to local regulations.
Le panneau de processeur est équipé d’une batterie de lithium. Le grand soin devrait être pris avec ce type de
batterie. Si la batterie est mistreated il y a de dans de toute façon un possibility très vrai du feu, d’expolosion et de
mal personnel. Dans au cunes circonstances il est sous peu circuité, exposé aux températures au dessus de 100
degrés de centrigrade ou brûlé, immergé dans l’eau, rechargée ou dissassambled.
Les batteries expirées restent dazaedous et doivent être reejetées d’une façon sûre, selon des règlements locaux.
