4. Align the CPU key that is the semi-circle cutouts against the socket keys. Once it is
aligned, carefully lower the CPU straight down into the socket. (Do not drop the CPU on
the socket. Do not move the CPU horizontally or vertically.
5. Do not rub the CPU against the surface or against any pins of the socket to avoid
damaging the CPU or the socket.)
6. With the CPU inside the socket, inspect the four corners of the CPU to make sure that
the CPU is properly installed.
7. Use your thumb to gently push the load lever down to the lever lock.
Warning: You can only install the CPU inside the socket in one direction. Make sure that it is
properly inserted into the CPU socket before closing the load plate. If the load plate doesn't
close properly, do not force it as it may damage your CPU. Instead, open the load plate again
and double-check that the CPU is aligned properly.
