ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE
A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor
may damage circuit boards or other static-sensitive devices.
This type of damage may reduce the life expectancy of the
device. To prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following
precautions:
Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing parts in
static-safe containers.
Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until
they arrive at static-free work stations.
Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them
from their container.
Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
Always be properly grounded when touching a static-
sensitive component or assembly.
GROUNDING METHODS
There are several methods for grounding. Use one or more of
the following measures when handling or installing
electrostatic-sensitive parts:
Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded
workstation or the printer chassis. Wrist straps are flexible
straps with a minimum of 1 megohm ± 10 percent resistance
in the ground cords. To provide a proper ground, wear the
strap snug against the skin.
Use heel straps, toe straps, or boot straps at standing
workstations. Wear the straps on both feet when standing on
conductive floors or dissipating floor mats.
Use conductive field service tools.
Use a portable field service kit with a folding static-
dissipating work mat.
If you do not have the proper grounding equipment, have an
Authorized Digital Reseller install the part.
NOTE: For additional information on static electricity, or
assistance with the installation of this product, contact your
