ESD WARNING
CAUTION
To avoid ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) damage to sensitive components, make sure you are properly grounded before
touching any internal materials.
When working with any equipment manufactured with electronic devices, proper ESD grounding procedures must be
followed to make sure people, products, and tools are as free of static charges as possible. Grounding straps, conductive
smocks, and conductive work mats are specically designed for this purpose. These items should not be manufactured
locally, since they are generally composed of highly resistive conductive materials to safely drain static discharges, with
out increasing an electrocution risk in the event of an accident.
Anyone performing eld maintenance on AMX equipment should use an appropriate ESD eld service kit complete with at
least a dissipative work mat with a ground cord and a UL listed adjustable wrist strap with another ground cord.
WARNING: Do Not Open! Risk of Electrical Shock. Voltages in this equipment
are hazardous to life. No user-serviceable parts inside. Refer all servicing to
