■	 Electrostatic	discharge	(ESD)	is	the	sudden	and	momentary	electric	current		
	 that	flows	between	two	objects	at	different	electrical	potentials.	Normally	it		
 comes out as a spark which will quickly damage your electronic equipment. 
 Please wear an electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap when handling 
 components such as a motherboard, CPU or memory. 
■	 Ensure	that	the	DC	power	supply	is	turned	off	before	installing	or	removing	CPU,		
 memory, expansion cards or other peripherals. It is recommended to unplug the 
 AC power cord from the power supply outlet. Failure to unplug the power supply 
 cord may result in serious damage to your system.

Please carefully read the following procedures to install your computer :
■	 It	is	suggested	to	select	high-quality,	certified	fans	in	order	to	avoid	damage	to		
 the motherboard and CPU due to high temperature. Never turn on the computer 
 if the CPU fan is not properly installed.
■	 We	cannot	guarantee	that	your	system	can	operate	normally	when	your	CPU		
 is overclocked. Normal operation depends on the overclocking capacity of your 
 device.
■	 If	there	is	any,	when	connecting	USB,	audio,	1394a,	RS232	COM,	IrDA	or	 
 S/PDIF cables to the internal connectors on the motherboard, make sure their 
 pinouts are matching with the connectors on the motherboard. Incorrect 
 connections might damage the motherboard.
■	 When	handling	the	motherboard,	avoid	touching	any	metal	leads	or		connectors.
■	 If	there	is	a	PCI	Express	x16	graphics	card	installed	in	your	system,	we	 
	 recommend	using	a	24-pin	ATX	power	supply	to	get	the	best	performance.
■	 Before	turning	on	the	power,	please	make	sure	the	power	supply	AC	input	 
	 voltage	setting	has	been	configured	to	the	local	standard.
■	 To	prevent	damage	to	the	motherboard,	do	not	allow	screws	to	come	in	contact		
 with the motherboard circuit or its components. Also, make sure there are no 
 leftover screws or metal components placed on the motherboard or within the 
 computer casing. 
■	 If	you	are	uncertain	about	any	installation	steps	or	have	a	problem	related	to	the		
	 use	of	the	product,	please	consult	a	certified	computer	technician.
