NOTICE: Positioning the microprocessor incorrectly can permanently damage the
microprocessor and the system when you turn on the system. When placing the microprocessor
in the socket, be sure that all of the pins on the microprocessor go into the corresponding holes.
Be careful not to bend the pins.
Install the microprocessor in the socket (see Figure 1-2).

When the microprocessor is fully seated in the socket, rotate the socket release lever
11
back down until it snaps into place, securing the microprocessor in the socket.
NOTICE: When not installed on the microprocessor, place the heat sink upside down on a flat
surface to prevent the thermal interface material on the heat sink from being damaged or
contaminated. The microprocessor can overheat if the thermal interface is damaged.
Place the heat sink on the microprocessor, noting the correct orientation (see
12
Figure 1-1):
Secure the heat sink (see Figure 1-1).
