ESD Precautions

Electronic equipment is susceptible to damage by static electricity. To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) when you install or service the server:

  • Use a grounded antistatic wrist strap, foot strap, or equivalent safety equipment.

  • Place components on an antistatic surface, such as an antistatic discharge mat or an antistatic bag.

  • Wear an antistatic grounding wrist strap connected to a metal surface on the chassis when you work on system components.

Caution:

Equipment damage: Electrostatic damage can permanently disable the system or require repair by authorized service technicians.

Before installing the server, read the safety information in Oracle Server Safety and Compliance Guide and in Important Safety Information for Oracle's Hardware Systems.
