WARNING: CMOS Battery Damage
Replace your system’s CMOS RAM battery only with the identical CR-2032 3V Lithium-Ion
coin cell (or equivalent) battery type to avoid risk of personal injury or physical damage to
your equipment. Always dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s
instructions, or as required by the local ordinance (where applicable). The damage due to
not following this warning will void your motherboard’s manufacturer warranty.
ATTENTION: Incorrect BIOS Setup
If you do not know how to handle BIOS setup or how to set it up properly, it is strongly
advisable that you do not modify any of the settings than otherwise instructed in the User’s
Quick Start Card. Even a seemingly small incorrect adjustment or modification in the BIOS
setup can render your system unstable or unusable. The incorrect BIOS setup is not covered
by your motherboard’s manufacturer warranty.

WARNING: Electrostatic Sensitive Device (ESD)
Static electricity can easily damage your motherboard and will void your motherboard
warranty. Keep the motherboard and other system components in their anti-static packaging
until you are ready to install them. Touch a grounded surface before you remove any system
component from its protective anti-static packaging. Unpacking and installation should be
done on a grounded, anti-static mat. The operator should be wearing an anti-static
wristband, grounded at the same points as the anti-static mat. During configuration and
installation touch a grounded surface frequently to discharge any static electrical charge that
may have built up in your body. Avoid touching the components when handling the
motherboard or a peripheral card. Handle the motherboard and peripheral cards either by
the edges or by the peripheral card case-mounting bracket.
