Chapter 3: System Setup
Removing the Chassis Cover
Prior to removing the chassis cover, make sure 
the unit’s power is off and disconnected from 
the power sources to prevent electric shock or 
system damage. 
 
1.
The screws around the cover are used to secure the 
cover to the chassis. Remove these screws and put 
them in a safe place for later use. 
The dots denote the locations of the screws. 
 
 
2.
Lift up the cover then remove it from the chassis.
 
 
 
Installing the CPU 
 
1. 
If the system came with the heat sink already installed, 
loosen the mounting screws that secure the heat sink to 
the board. 
 
•
Before you proceed, make sure 
(1) the CPU socket comes with a 
protective cap, (2) the cap is not 
damaged and (3) the socket’s contact 
pins are not bent. 
•
Make sure all power cables are 
unplugged before you install the CPU.
•
The CPU socket must not come in 
contact with anything other than the 
CPU. Avoid unnecessary exposure. 
Remove the protective cap only when 
you are about to install the CPU. 
 
2.
Remove the heat sink to access the CPU socket.
