A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage system boards or other static-sensitive devices. This type of damage may reduce the life expectancy of the device. To prevent electrostatic damage: • Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers. • Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free workstations. • Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their containers. • Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry. • Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly. Selecting a location When selecting a location, follow these guidelines: • Select a location that is flat, sturdy, and level. • Select a location close to a network Ethernet port and an AC outlet. The AC power cord is the appliancet's main AC disconnect device and must be easily accessible at all times. • Ensure minimum clearance of 15.4 cm (6 inches) at the back of the appliance, 30.8 cm (12 inches) at the front of the appliance, and 5.08 cm (2 inches) on either side of the appliance. • Avoid placing the autoloader on the floor or other carpeted surfaces. • The appliance makes some noise when operating, so choose a location where the noise will not be cause a disturbance. • Avoid areas near frequently used doors and walkways, stacks of supplies that collect dust, printers, and smoke-filled rooms.
