Attention:
v Do not touch the microprocessor contacts; handle the microprocessor by
the edges only. Contaminants on the microprocessor contacts, such as
oil from your skin, can cause connection failures between the contacts
and the socket.
v
Handle the microprocessor carefully. Dropping the microprocessor during
installation or removal can damage the contacts.
v
Do not use excessive force when you press the microprocessor into the
socket.
v Make sure that the microprocessor is oriented and aligned and
positioned in the socket before you try to close the lever.

position of the notches); then, carefully place the microprocessor on the
socket. Close the microprocessor bracket frame.
Note: The microprocessor fits only one way on the socket.
