Only qualified technicians should repair the device. Unqualified users who open the

points:
●
You must statically discharge yourself before working with boards (e.g. by touching a grounded
object).
●
The equipment and tools you use must be free of static charges.
●
Pull out the power connector and remove the battery before you install or remove boards.
●
Always hold boards with ESDs by their edges.
●
Never touch pins or conductors on boards fitted with ESDs.
