Caution: ESD and handling processors: Reduce the risk of electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage to

the processor by doing the following: (1) Touch the metal chassis before touching the
processor or server board. Keep part of your body in contact with the metal chassis to
dissipate the static charge while handling the processor. (2) Avoid moving around
unnecessarily.

Caution: Protective socket cover needs to be removed for proper cooling of the processor; failure to

remove the cover could result in damage to the system.
