III. INSTALLATION

WARNING! Make sure the heatsink is mounted tightly against the SECC, SECC2 or SEPP; otherwise, the CPU will overheat. You may install an auxiliary fan to provide adequate circulation across the processor’s passive heatsink.

3.Insert the SECC/SECC2/SEPP

SECC with Pentium® II only: Push the SECC’s two locks inward until you hear a click (the picture in step 2 shows the locks in the outward position and inward in the picture below).

With the heatsink facing the motherboard’s chipset, push the SECC, SECC2, or SEPP gently but firmly into the Slot 1 connector until it is fully inserted.

Secure the SECC/SECC2/SEPP in place by pushing the SECC/SECC2/SEPP until it is firmly seated on the Slot 1 connector.

SECC with Pentium® II only: The SECC locks should be outward when se- cured so that the lock shows through the retention mechanism’s lock holes.

5.Attach the Thermal Sensor Cable (optional): If you purchased the especially designed ASUS Smart Fan (ASUS S-P2FAN), which comes with a thermal sensor built inside the CPU fan, or purchased separately the thermal sensor cable (ASUS P2T-Cable), you can connect the P2T-Cable to your motherboard’s thermal sensor connector. (See next page for information on ASUS Smart Thermal Solutions.)
