Table 2-1 Safety Precautions


Item	Problem	Precaution
AC power cord	Grounding	Leave the AC power cord plugged into the AC wall outlet when replacing drives or DSIMMs. Leaving the AC power cord plugged into the wall outlet provides a grounding path for the wrist strap, which must be attached.
Wrist strap	Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)	Wear a wrist strap when handling printed circuit boards, drives, or other components such as DSIMMs.
ESD mat	ESD	An approved antistatic mat provides protection from static damage when used with a wrist strap. The mat also cushions and protects small parts that are attached to printed circuit boards.
Printed circuit boards	ESD	Handle a printed circuit board by the edges only. Store a board in an antistatic bag.
Cover	System damage and overheating	Replace the cover after performing service on the system.
SBus slot filler panels	System damage and overheating	Install filler panels in all unused SBus openings. Openings on the back of the system board reduce the cooling capability of the system.
