board, touch a grounded metal to
discharge the static electricity of
your body.
Otherwise, it may cause malfunction or
failure due to static electricity.
Mandatory
Wipe off stain on the device,
module, or board with a soft cloth.
For severe stain, use a wet cloth wrung
tightly.
Leaving them stained may cause wrong
decision or malfunction.
Mandatory
Place a board or module removed
from the unit or base unit on a
conductive mat or conductive bag
(used for a backup board) on a
grounded table.
Otherwise, parts may be damaged
due to static electricity.
