Static electricity can harm electronic components inside your computer. To prevent
static damage, discharge static electricity from your body before you touch any of
your computer’s electronic components, such as a memory module. You can do so by
touching an unpainted metal surface on the computer’s I/O panel.
As you continue to work inside the computer, periodically touch an I/O connector to
remove any static charge your body may have accumulated.
You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic
discharge (ESD):
‡
When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, do not
remove the component from the antistatic packing material until you are ready to
install the component. Just before unwrapping the antistatic packaging, be sure
to discharge static electricity from your body.
‡
When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic container
or packaging.
‡
Handle all sensitive components in a static-safe area. If possible, use antistatic
floor pads and workbench pads .
The following notice may appear throughout your Dell documentation to remind you
of these precautions:
