Precautions When
Removing,
Installing, or Storing
FRUs
Use the precautions listed below when you remove, handle, or store
FRUs:
◆ Do not remove a faulty FRU until you have a replacement
available.
◆ Handle a FRU only when using an ESD wristband. Attach the clip
of the ESD wristband to the ESD bracket or bare metal on the
enclosure, and put the wristband around your wrist with the
metal button against your skin.
◆ Handle FRUs gently. A sudden jar, drop, or vibration can
permanently damage a FRU and may not be immediately
evident. Never place a FRU on a hard surface such as an
unpadded cart, floor, or desktop, or stacked on top of another
FRU.
◆ Never use excessive force to remove or install a FRU.
◆ Store a FRU in the antistatic bag and specially designed shipping
container in which you received it. Use that container if you need
to return the FRU for repair.
◆ Maintain the location where you store FRUs within the limits
specified in Appendix A.
◆ Place the cables where no one can step on them or roll equipment
over them.
