Take note of the following precautions before you any components or change any the component settings.
Also please read the safety information (discussed on page …) before you plug your PC into a wall socket.
•
Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any component.
Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or a metal object, such as the power
supply case, before handling components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity.
•
Avoid wearing synthetic fabrics, particularly Nylon.
•
Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.
•
Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic pad or in the bag that
came with the component.
Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the ATX power supply is switched off or the
power cord is detached from the power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the
motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.
