NOTE:
After removing the processor, place it in an antistatic container for reuse, return, or temporary storage.

of the processor.
Installing the processor
1. Place the processor on the socket such that the slots on the processor align with the socket keys [1].
CAUTION:
The pin-1 corner of the processor has a triangle that aligns with the triangle on the pin-1 corner on the

more corners of the processor are higher than the others, the processor is not seated properly.
2. Close the processor shield by sliding it under the retention screw [2].
3. Lower the socket lever and push it under the tab to lock it [3].
