NOTICE: Ensure that the cam lock is in the fully open position before seating the processor module. Seating the processor module properly in the ZIF socket does not require force. NOTICE: A processor module that is not properly seated can result in an intermittent connection or permanent damage to the processor and ZIF socket. 1. Align the pin-1 corner of the processor module so that it points to the triangle on the system board, and insert the processor module into the ZIF socket. When the processor module is correctly seated, all four corners are aligned at the same height. If one or more corners of the module are higher than the others, the module is not seated correctly. NOTICE: Hold the processor down while turning the cam screw to prevent intermittent contact between the cam screw and processor. 2. Tighten the ZIF socket by turning the cam screw clockwise to secure the processor module to the system board. 3. Wipe the thermal-pad residue off the processor thermal-cooling assembly with a clean paper towel. NOTE: Before you replace the processor thermal-cooling assembly, ensure that you place the new thermal pad that shipped with the replacement processor module on top of the module. 4. Replace the processor thermal-cooling assembly (see Processor Thermal-Cooling Assembly). 5. Update the BIOS using a flash BIOS-update program CD (see Flashing the BIOS From a CD).
