1.1 Before you Proceed

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or change

any motherboard settings.



Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis to ensure that the

motherboard fits into it. Refer to the chassis documentation before installing the motherboard.

Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the

motherboard. Failure to do so can cause you physical injury and

damage motherboard components.

When installing the motherboard, make sure that you place it into the chassis in the correct

orientation. The edge with external ports goes to the rear part of the chassis as indicated in

the image below.

Place eight (8) screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard to the

chassis.

Do not over tighten the screws! Doing so can damage the

motherboard.

Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any

component.

Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or a

metal object, such as the power supply case, before handling

components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity

Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on

them.

Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded

anti-static pad or in the bag that came with the component.

Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the ATX

power supply is switched off or the power cord is detached from

the power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to

the motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.
