3. Open the microprocessor bracket frame and remove the microprocessor filler, if one is installed.
Attention:
a. Do not touch the microprocessor contacts; handle the microprocessor by the edges only.
Contaminants on the microprocessor contacts, such as oil from your skin, can cause connection
failures between the contacts and the socket.
b. Handle the microprocessor carefully. Dropping the microprocessor during installation or removal
can damage the contacts.
c. Do not use excessive force when you press the microprocessor into the socket.
d. Make sure that the microprocessor is oriented, aligned, and positioned in the socket before you
try to close the lever.
4. Install the microprocessor:
a. Touch the static-protective package that contains the microprocessor to any unpainted metal surface
on the server. Then, remove the microprocessor from the package.
b. Remove the protective cover, tape, or label from the surface of the microprocessor socket, if any
is present.
c. Align the microprocessor with the socket. The microprocessor has two notches that are keyed to
two tabs on the sides of the socket. A triangle-shaped indicator on one corner of the microprocessor
points to a 45-degree angle on one corner of the socket.
d. Carefully place the microprocessor into the socket. Do not use excessive force when you press
the microprocessor into the socket.
Note: The microprocessor fits only one way on the socket.
5. Close the microprocessor bracket frame and hold it down; then, close the microprocessor retention
latch and lock it securely in place.
