Install the CPU

1.Locate the 604-pin ZIF sockets on the motherboard. Unlock the socket by pressing the lever sideways, then lift it up to at least 115° angle.

NOTE: Make sure that the socket lever is lifted up to at least 115° angle, otherwise the CPU does not fit in completely.

2.Position the CPU above the socket as shown.

3.Carefully insert the CPU into the socket until it fits in place.

CAUTION

The CPU fits only in one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU into the socket to prevent bending the pins and damaging the CPU!
