Always turn o the power supply and unplug the power cord from the power outlet
before nstallng or removng any computer component.
Ensure that all components are securely connected. Loose connectons may cause
the computer to not recognze a component or fal to start.
Hold the manboard by the edges to avod touchng senstve components.
It s recommended to wear an electrostatc dscharge (ESD) wrst strap when handlng

dscharge yourself of statc electrcty by touchng another metal object before han-
dlng the manboard.
Store the manboard n an electrostatc sheldng contaner or on an antstatc pad
whenever the manboard s not nstalled.
Before turnng on the computer, ensure that there are no loose screws or metal com-
ponents on the manboard or anywhere wthn the computer case.
Do not use the computer n a hgh-temperature envronment.
Do not boot the computer before nstallaton s completed. Ths could cause perma-
nent damage to the components as well as njury to the user.
