indicates an electrostatic sensitive area. To prevent personal injury and equipment damage when operating equipment in this area, wear an ESD wrist strap, ESD clothing, or ESD gloves. Note the following:

• Do not wear an ESD wrist strap when powering on the equipment to prevent an electric shock.
• Do not touch devices with bare hands to prevent damage to the electrostatic sensitive devices (ESSDs) on the circuit boards.
• The electronic line is prone to electrostatic damage. Wear an ESD wrist strap, ESD gloves, and ESD clothing when handling disks, especially bare disks. Hold a disk by its edge.
• Since an ESD wrist strap only prevents static electricity from the body, the ESD clothing is required to prevent static electricity from clothes.
• Before installing or replacing devices, wear an ESD wrist strap, ESD gloves, and ESD clothing to protect you and the equipment from static electricity.
• Use special ESD bags to carry or transport device components.
