5.4 CPU, CPU Cooling Kit and DIMM Installation
WARNING:
A CPU should never be turned on without the specified cooling kit
being installed. If the cooling kit (heat sink and fan) is not properly
installed and the system turned on, permanent damage to the CPU,
KINO-690AM2 and other electronic components attached to the
system may be incurred. Running a CPU without a cooling kit may also
result in injury to the user.
The CPU, CPU cooling kit and DIMM are the most critical components of the
KINO-690AM2. If one of these components is not installed the KINO-690AM2 cannot run.

Figure 5-4: Installing a DIMM
Step 1: Open the DIMM socket handles. The DIMM socket has two handles that
secure the DIMM into the socket. Before the DIMM can be inserted into the
socket, the handles must be opened. See
Step 2: Align the DIMM with the socket. The DIMM must be oriented in such a way
that the notch in the middle of the DIMM must be aligned with the plastic bridge
in the socket. See
Step 3: Insert the DIMM. Once properly aligned, the DIMM can be inserted into the
socket. As the DIMM is inserted, the white handles on the side of the socket will

5.5 Jumper Settings
NOTE:
A jumper is a met al bridge t hat is used to
close an electrical circuit. It consists of
two metal pins and a small metal clip
(often protected by a plastic cover) that
slides over the pins to connect them.
To CLOSE/SHORT a jumper means
connecting the pins of the jumper with
the plastic clip and to OPEN a jumper
means removing the plastic clip from a
jumper.
Before the KINO-690AM2 is installed in the system, the jumpers must be set in
accordance with the desired configuration. The jumpers on the KI NO-690AM2 are listed in
Table 5-1.
