1. Getting Started
1.1 Safety Precautions
Warning!
Always completely disconnect the power cord from your
chassis whenever you work with the hardware. Do not make
connections while the power is on. Sensitive electronic
components can be damaged by sudden power surges.
Only experienced electronics personnel should open the PC
chassis.
Caution!
Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before
touching the CPU card. Modern electronic devices are very
sensitive to static electric charges. As a safety precaution,
use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic
components in a static-dissipative surface or static-shielded
bag when they are not in the chassis.
Risk of Explosion if Battery is replaced by an Incorrect Type.
Dispose of Used Batteries According to the Instructions.
Français:
Attention!
Débranchez le câble d'alimentation de votre châssis chaque
fois que vous travaillez avec le matériel. Ne faites pas de
connexion lorsque le système est allumé. Les composants
électroniques sensibles peuvent être endommagés par les
surtensions soudaines. Seule les personnels expérimentés
de l'électronique peuvent ouvrir le châssis du PC.
Précaution!
Il faut toujours mettre à la masse pour éliminer l’électricité
statique avant de toucher la carte CPU. Les appareils
électroniques modernes sont très sensibles aux électricité
statique. Pour des raisons de sécurité, utilisez un bracelet
électrostatique. Placez tous les composants électroniques
sur une surface antistatique ou dans un sac antistatique
quand ils ne sont pas dans le châssis.
Risque d'explosion si la batterie est remplacée par un type
incorrect. Jetez les piles usagées selon les instructions
