To reduce the possibility of damage from electrostatic discharge, observe thefollowing precautions:v Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up aroundyou.v Wear an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap, if one is available.v Handle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or its frame.v Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed circuitry.v Do not leave the device where others can handle and damage it.v While the device is still in its static-protective package, touch it to an unpaintedmetal surface on the outside of the server for at least 2 seconds. This drainsstatic electricity from the package and from your body.v Remove the device from its package and install it directly into the server withoutsetting down the device. If it is necessary to set down the device, put it back intoits static-protective package. Do not place the device on the server cover or on ametal surface.v Take additional care when you handle devices during cold weather. Heatingreduces indoor humidity and increases static electricity.28 IBM System x3850 X5 and x3950 X5 Types 7145 and 7146: Installation and User’s Guide
