CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

1.1 B

EFORE YOU START

Thank you for choosing our product. Before you start installing the

motherboard, please make sure you follow the instructions below:

 Prepare a dry and stable working environment with

sufficient lighting.

 Always disconnect the computer from power outlet

before operation.

 Before you take the motherboard out from anti-static

bag, ground yourself properly by touching any safely

grounded appliance, or use grounded wrist strap to

remove the static charge.

 Avoid touching the components on motherboard or the

rear side of the board unless necessary. Hold the board

on the edge, do not try to bend or flex the board.

 Do not leave any unfastened small parts inside the

case after installation. Loose parts will cause short

circuits which may damage the equipment.

 Keep the computer from dangerous area, such as heat

source, humid air and water.

CHAPTER 2: HARDWARE INSTALLATION

2.1 I

NSTALLING CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT (CPU)

Step 1: Remove the socket protection cap.

Step 2: Pull the lever toward direction A from the socket and then raise the

lever up to a 90-degree angle.

Step 3: Look for the white triangle on socket, and the gold triangle on

CPU should point forwards this white triangle. The CPU will fit

only in the correct orientation.

Step 4: Hold the CPU down firmly, and then close the lever toward direct

B to complete the installation.

Step 5: Put the CPU Fan on the CPU and buckle it. Connect the CPU

FAN power cable to the JCFAN1. This completes the installation.
