Before installing a mezzanine card to a motherboard, remove the motherboard from the
chassis. To do so, be sure to power down the system and remove all connected cables rst. For
more details, refer to the user manual that comes with your system.

2. Gently insert the mezzanine card into the mezzanine card slot on the motherboard.

When the mezzanine card is well installed, horizontally slide the motherboard back to the
chassis so the I/O connectors t through the I/O openings at the rear of the chassis. Well install
the motherboard to the chassis with screws.
Simply squeeze the top of each spacer support to release the mezzanine card.
