CPU Installation Procedures for Socket AM2

1.Please turn off the power and

unplug the power cord before

installing the CPU.

2.Pull the lever sideways away

from the socket. Make sure to

raise the lever up to a 90-de-

gree angle.

3.Look for the gold arrow of the

CPU. The gold arrow should

point as shown in the picture.

The CPU can only fit in the cor-

rect orientation.

4.If the CPU is correctly installed,

the pins should be completely

embedded into the socket and

can not be seen. Please note

that any violation of the correct

installation procedures may

cause permanent damages to

your mainboard.

5. Press the CPU down firmly into

the socket and close the lever.

As the CPU is likely to move while

the lever is being closed, al-

ways close the lever with your

fingers pressing tightly on top of

the CPU to make sure the CPU is

properly and completely embed-

ded into the socket.
