CAUTION: To prevent damage to the computer, observe the following Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
precautions while performing the system parts removal and replacement procedures:
— Work on a static-free mat.
— Wear a static strap to ensure that any accumulated electrostatic charge is discharged from your body to
the ground.
— Create a common ground for the equipment you are working on by connecting the static-free mat, static
