3.6.1 Installing the CPU and Terminator

Follow these steps to install a CPU.

1. Locate the ZIF socket on the motherboard.
2. Unlock the socket by pressing the lever

sideways then lifting it up to a 90°-100°
angle.

3. Position the CPU above the socket such

that its notched or marked corner matches
the socket corner near the end of the lever,
while making sure that the CPU is parallel
to the socket.

4. Carefuly insert the CPU into the socket

until it fits in place.

CAUTION!

The CPU fits only in one orientation. Do not force the CPU into the

socket to prevent bending the pins and damaging the CPU. If the CPU does not
fit completely, check its orientation or check for bent pins.

5. When the CPU is in place, press it firmly on the socket while you push down the

socket lever to secure the CPU. The lever clicks on the socket indicating that it
is locked.

NOTE: Do not forget to set the correct Bus Frequency and Multiple
(frequency multiple setting is available only on unlocked processors) for the
processor to avoid start-up problems.

6. Install the CPU terminator the same way

as you would install a CPU. The figure on
the right shows an installed CPU
terminator.
