LITHIUM BATTERY CAUTION:
Risk of Explosion if Battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions
Operating Safety
Electrical equipment generates heat. Ambient air temperature
may not be adequate to cool equipment to acceptable
operating temperatures without adequate circulation. Be sure
that the room in which you choose to operate your system has
adequate air circulation.
Ensure that the chassis cover is secure. The chassis design
allows cooling air to circulate effectively. An open chassis
permits air leaks, which may interrupt and redirect the flow of
cooling air from internal components.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and
impair electrical circuitry. ESD damage occurs when electronic
components are improperly handled and can result in complete
or intermittent failures. Be sure to follow ESD-prevention
procedures when removing and replacing components to avoid
these problems.
Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes
good skin contact. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself
by touching the metal part of the chassis.
Periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap,
which should be between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohms).
