WIFI-RT3593-DB Page 7 2.1 Anti-static Precautions WARNING! Static electricity can destroy certain electronics. Make sure to follow the ESD precautions to prevent damage to the product, and injury to the user. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the WIFI-RT3593-DB. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is therefore critical that whenever the WIFI-RT3593-DB or any other electrical component is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.  Wear an anti-static wristband: Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.  Self-grounding: Touch any grounded conducting material before handling the board. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any conducting materials that are connected to the ground.  Use an anti-static pad: When configuring the WIFI-RT3593-DB, place it on an antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damaging the WIFI-RT3593-DB. 2.2 Unpacking Precautions When the WIFI-RT3593-DB is unpacked, please do the following:  Follow the antistatic guidelines above.  Make sure the packing box is facing upwards so the WIFI-RT3593-DB does not fall out of the box.  Make sure all the packing list items are present.

WIFI-RT3593-DB Page 17 A.1 Hazardous Material Disclosure Table for IPB Products Certified as RoHS Compliant Under 2002/95/EC Without Mercury The details provided in this appendix are to ensure that the product is compliant with the Peoples Republic of China (China) RoHS standards. The table below acknowledges the presences of small quantities of certain materials in the product, and is applicable to China RoHS only. A label will be placed on each product to indicate the estimated “Environmentally Friendly Use Period” (EFUP). This is an estimate of the number of years that these substances would “not leak out or undergo abrupt change.” This product may contain replaceable sub-assemblies/components which have a shorter EFUP such as batteries and lamps. These components will be separately marked. Please refer to the table on the next page.
