To install a CPU:
1.
Locate the CPU socket on the motherboard.
Before installing the CPU, make sure that the socket box is facing
towards you and the load lever is on your left.
2.
Press the load lever with your
thumb (A), then move it to the
left (B) until it is released from
the retention tab.
To prevent damage to the
socket pins, do not remove
the PnP cap unless you are
installing a CPU.
3.
Lift the load lever in the
direction of the arrow to a 135º
angle.
4.
Lift the load plate with your
thumb and forefinger to a 100º
angle (A), then push the PnP
cap from the load plate window
to remove (B).
