Chapter 1: Product introduction

Onboard LED

The motherboard comes with a newly designed ASUS Power LED that lights

up in two colors to show the system power status. Blue indicates that the

system is in sleep/soft-off mode and Red indicates that the system is ON.

The ASUS Power LED helps remind you to shut down the system and unplug

the power cable before removing or plugging in any motherboard component.

Before you proceed

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components

or change any motherboard settings.

• Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any

component.

• Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or to a metal

object, such as the power supply case, before handling components to

avoid damaging them due to static electricity

• Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.
• Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic

pad or in the bag that came with the component.

• Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the ATX power

supply is switched off or the power cord is detached from the power

supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the motherboard,

peripherals, and/or components.
