participation is important to minimize any potential effects of batteries and
accumulators on the environment and human health due to the potential presence
of hazardous substances. For proper collection and treatment, contact your local

Handling static-sensitive devices
Ensure that you understand how to handle devices that are sensitive to static
electricity.
Attention: Static electricity can damage electronic devices and your system. To
avoid damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their static protective bags until you
are ready to install them.
To reduce the possibility of electrostatic discharge, observe the following
precautions:
v Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around
you.
v Handle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or frame.
v Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed printed circuitry.
v Do not leave the device where others can handle and possibly damage the
device.
v While the device is still in its anti-static bag, touch it to an unpainted metal part
of the system unit for at least 2 seconds. (This action removes static electricity
from the package and from your body.)
v Remove the device from its package and install it directly into your SAN
Volume Controller, without putting it down. If it is necessary to put the device
down, place it onto its static-protective bag. (If your device is an adapter, place it
component side up.) Do not place the device onto the cover of the SAN Volume
Controller or onto a metal table.
v Take additional care when you handle devices during cold weather because
heating reduces indoor humidity and increases static electricity.
