2.Some of the semiconductor devices (CMOS and NMOS) used in the TM1 Module, MX119, MX134, MX135, MHT Series, C45, MR85 and other McIntosh Components are inherently sensitive to static electricity even

when connected in a circuit, and can be permanently damaged by a static electricity discharge. When handling the TM1 and working inside the MX119, MX134, MX135, MHT Series, C45, MR85 or other McIntosh Components, follow the procedures below to insure against static electricity damage.

A.Make sure the MX119, MX134, MX135, MHT Series, C45, MR85 or other McIntosh Components are properly grounded.

B.Use an approved wrist strap that is grounded.

C.Remove the TM1 from the Anti-Static Bag and work with it only after the above conditions have been met.
