2.2 Installing Central Processing Unit (CPU) 
1.  Locate the 478-pin CPU ZIF socket on the motherboard. And pull the Socket 
actuation lever to the 90-degree directly. 
2.  Position the CPU above the socket that its marked corner (golden cut edge on 
the CPU upper corner) matches the base of the socket lever. Insert the CPU into 
the socket. (Do not force the CPU into the socket.) Then push down the socket 
lever to secure the CPU. 
3.  Apply the thermal tape to provide better heat conduction between your CPU and 
cooling fan. Position the cooling fan on top of the CPU. Align and snap the four 
hooks of the retention mechanism to the holes on each corner of the module 
base. 
4.  Make sure the CPU fan power connector is plugged to the motherboard fan 
power connector, than installing CPU is completed.
