Safety Information
Electrical safety
To prevent electrical shock hazard, disconnect the power cable from the electrical outlet
before relocating the system.
When adding or removing devices to or from the system, ensure that the power cables
for the devices are unplugged before the signal cables are connected. If possible,
disconnect all power cables from the existing system before you add a device.
Before connecting or removing signal cables from the motherboard, ensure that all power
cables are unplugged.
Seek professional assistance before using an adapter or extension cord. These devices
could interrupt the grounding circuit.
Make sure that your power supply is set to the correct voltage in your area. If you are not
sure about the voltage of the electrical outlet you are using, contact your local power
company.
If the power supply is broken, do not try to fix it by yourself. Contact a qualified service
technician or your retailer.
Operation safety
Before installing the motherboard and adding devices on it, carefully read all the manuals
that came with the package.
Before using the product, make sure all cables are correctly connected and the power
cables are not damaged. If you detect any damage, contact your dealer immediately.
To avoid short circuits, keep paper clips, screws, and staples away from connectors,
slots, sockets and circuitry.
Avoid dust, humidity, and temperature extremes. Do not place the product in any area
where it may become wet.
Place the product on a stable surface.
If you encounter technical problems with the product, contact a qualified service
technician or your retailer.
The symbol of the crossed out wheeled bin indicates that the product
(Electrical and electronic equipment) should not be placed in
municipal waste. Check local regulations for disposal of electronic
products.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Before you proceed
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or change
any motherboard settings.
Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any
component.
Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or
a metal object, such as the power supply case, before handling
components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity
Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on
them.
Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded
antistatic pad or in the bag that came with the component.
Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the
ATX power supply is switched off or the power cord is detached
from the power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe
damage to the motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.

1.2 Motherboard Overview
Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis to ensure that the
motherboard fits into it. Refer to the chassis documentation before installing the motherboard.
Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the
motherboard. Failure to do so can cause you physical injury and
damage motherboard components.
1.2.1 Placement Direction
When installing the motherboard, make sure that you place it into the chassis in the correct
orientation. The edge with external ports goes to the rear part of the chassis as indicated in
the image below.
1.2.2 Screw Holes
Place four (4) screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard to the
chassis.
Do not over tighten the screws! Doing so can damage the
motherboard.

1.4 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
1.4.1 Connect the CPU Fan cable to the CPU_FAN connector on the motherboard.
Do not forget to connect the CPU Fan connector! Hardware
monitoring errors can occur if you fail to plug this connector.
After installation, make sure to plug-in the ATX power cable to the
motherboard.
Connect the CPU fan cable to the CPU_FAN connector on the motherboard.

1.5 System Memory
1.5.1 DIMM Sockets Location
The motherboard comes with one 204-pin Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3) SODIMM sockets.
A DDR3 module has the same physical dimensions as a DDR DIMM but has a 204-pin
footprint. DDR3 DIMMs are notched differently to prevent installation on a DDR DIMM socket.
The following figure illustrates the location of the sockets:
