a. Touch the static-protective package that contains the microprocessor to any unpainted metal
surface on the server. Then, remove the microprocessor from the package.
b. Remove the protective cover, tape, or label from the surface of the microprocessor socket, if
any is present.
Attention: Make sure that the release latch on the microprocessor socket is in the fully open
position before you insert the microprocessor in the socket. Failure to do so might result in
permanent damage to the microprocessor, microprocessor socket, and system board.
c. Rotate the microprocessor release latch on the microprocessor socket from its closed and
locked position to its fully open position.
Attention:
• Do not touch the microprocessor contact; 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.
• Handle the microprocessor carefully. Dropping the microprocessor during installation or
removal can damage the contacts.
• Do not use excessive force when pressing the microprocessor into the socket.
• Make sure that the microprocessor is oriented and aligned with land number 1 in the socket
before you try to close the latch.
d. Align the microprocessor with the socket (note the alignment mark and the position of the
notches); then, carefully place the microprocessor on the socket and close the microprocessor
bracket frame.
