not wear cuff links while you are working inside the server. • Do not allow your necktie to hang inside the server. • Remove jewelry, such as bracelets, necklaces, rings, and loose-fitting wrist watches. • Remove items from your shirt pocket (such as pens or pencils) that could fall into the server as you lean over it. • Avoid dropping any metallic objects, such as paper clips, hair pins, or screws, into the server. Handling static-sensitive devices Static electricity, though harmless to you, can seriously damage server components or options. Note: When you are adding an internal option, do not open the static-protective package containing the option until you are instructed to do so. When you handle options and other server components, take these precautions to avoid damage from static electricity: • Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around you. • Always handle components carefully. Handle adapters, the memory board, and memory modules (DIMMs) by the edges. Never touch any exposed circuitry. • Prevent others from touching components. • When you are installing a new option, touch the staticprotective package containing the option to a metal expansion-slot screw or other unpainted metal surface on the server for at least two seconds. (This reduces static electricity from the package and from your body.) • When possible, remove the option and install it directly into the server without setting the option down. When this is not possible, place the static-protective package that the option comes in on a smooth, level surface and place the option on it. • Do not place the option on the server's covers or any metal surface. ≥18 kg (37 lbs) CAUTION: ≥32 kg (70.5 lbs) ≥55 kg (121.2 lbs) Installing options 65

Installing options
65
not wear cuff links while you are working inside the
server.
Do not allow your necktie to hang inside the server.
Remove jewelry, such as bracelets, necklaces, rings,
and loose-fitting wrist watches.
Remove items from your shirt pocket (such as pens or
pencils) that could fall into the server as you lean over
it.
Avoid dropping any metallic objects, such as paper
clips, hair pins, or screws, into the server.
Handling static-sensitive devices
Static electricity, though harmless to you, can seriously dam-
age server components or options.
Note:
When you are adding an internal option, do not open
the static-protective package containing the option
until you are instructed to do so.
When you handle options and other server components,
take these precautions to avoid damage from static electric-
ity:
Limit your movement.
Movement can cause static
electricity to build up around you.
Always handle components carefully.
Handle adapters,
the memory board, and memory modules (DIMMs) by
the edges.
Never touch any exposed circuitry.
Prevent others from touching components.
When you are installing a new option, touch the static-
protective package containing the option to a metal
expansion-slot screw or other unpainted metal surface
on the server for at least two seconds.
(This reduces
static electricity from the package and from your body.)
When possible, remove the option and install it directly
into the server without setting the option down.
When
this is not possible, place the static-protective package
that the option comes in on a smooth, level surface and
place the option on it.
Do not place the option on the server's covers or any
metal surface.
