Step1: Pull the lever sideways away from the soc k et and then raise the lever up to a
90 -degree angl e.
Step2: Look for the white dot/cut edge. The whit e dot/cut edge should point t owards the
lev er pivot. The C PU will fit only in the correct orient ation.
Step3: Hold the CPU down fir ml y, and then close the lever.
Step4: Put t he C PU f an on t he C PU and buck le it. C onnec t the C PU f an power cable to
