NOTICE: To avoid damage, ensure that the processor aligns properly with the socket, and do not use excessive force when you install the processor.

7Set the processor lightly in the socket and ensure that the processor is positioned correctly.

8When the processor is fully seated in the socket, close the processor cover.

Ensure that the tab on the processor cover is positioned underneath the center cover latch on the socket.

9Pivot the socket release lever back toward the socket, and snap it into place to secure the processor.
