regulations. However, hazards for persons and property may arise when handling the product.
Read and observe the following safety instructions before using the product.
2.1
Designated use
This product is intended for use as specified and explained in the Product description section
only. Any other use is considered non-designated use. The manufacturer is not liable for any

2.3
ESD prevention measures
NOTICE
Risk for electronic components due to electrostatic discharge.
Incorrect handling of electronic PCBs or components can result in damage which will cause a
complete breakdown or sporadic errors.
•
General ESD prevention measures must be observed when installing or repairing the
product.
•
Wear an anti-static wrist strap when handling electronic components. Connect the end of
the strap to a discharge box or a non-painted, earthed metal component. This way, static
discharges are channelled away from your body safely and effectively.
•
Handle a PCB along its edges only. Do not touch the PCB or connectors.
•
Place dismantled components on an anti-static surface or in an anti-static shielded con-
tainer.
•
Avoid contact between PCBs and clothing. The wrist strap protects PCBs against an elec-
trostatic discharge voltage from the body only. However, damage can also be caused by
an electrostatic discharge voltage from clothing.
•
Transport and ship dismantled modules in conductive anti-static bags only.
