• Always follow ESD prevention procedures when removing and replac-
ing cards.
• Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin
contact. Connect the clip to an unpainted surface of the chassis frame
to safely channel unwanted ESD voltages to ground.
• To properly guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist strap and
cord must operate effectively. If no wrist strap is available, ground
yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.
