 Activities such as carrying the device in a bag or attached
to a belt, operating the button field or cleaning the device
with a damp cloth do not represent a significant
electrostatic danger. However, if a mechanism which
generates static charge, such as repeated rubbing against
clothing, is identified, suitable precautionary measures
must be implemented, e.g. the use of anti-static clothing
and anti-static footwear.
