CAUTION:
When handling the heatsink, always hold it along the top and bottom of the fins. Holding it from the
sides can damage the fins.
CAUTION:
To prevent possible server malfunction and damage to the equipment, multiprocessor
configurations must contain processors with the same part number.
CAUTION:
If installing a processor with a faster speed, update the system ROM before installing the
processor.

THE CONTACTS ARE VERY FRAGILE AND EASILY DAMAGED. To avoid damage to the socket
or processor, do not touch the contacts.
