Replacing the Processor

Procedure

1 Unpack the new processor, being careful not to touch the underside of

the processor.

CAUTION:

You must position the processor correctly in the processor socket to

avoid damage to the processor.

2 If the release lever on the socket is not fully extended, move it to that

position.

3 Orient the alignment notches on the processor with the alignment tabs on

the socket.

4 Align the pin-1 corner of the processor with the pin-1 corner of the

processor socket, and then place the processor in the processor socket.

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