3.1 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the
NANO-4386A2 may result in permanent damage to the NANO-4386A2
and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the NANO-4386A2. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is critical
that the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to whenever handling the
NANO-4386A2 or any other electrical component.
NANO-4386A2 Motherboard
Wear an anti-static wristband - Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging the NANO-4386A2.
Self-grounding - Touch a grounded conducting material before handling and
periodically while handling the NANO-4386A2.
Use an anti-static pad - When configuring the NANO-4386A2, place it on an
antic-static pad to reduce the possibility of ESD damage.
Only handle the edges of the NANO-4386A2 - When handling the
NANO-4386A2, hold it by its edges.

5.1 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the
NANO-4386A2 may result in permanent damage to the NANO-4386A2
and severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the NANO-4386A2. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is
therefore critical that whenever the NANO-4386A2, or any other electrical component is
handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
NANO-4386A2 Motherboard
Wear an anti-static wristband: Wearing a simple ant i-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.
Self-grounding: Before handling the board, touch any grounded conducting
material. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any
conducting materials that are connected to the ground.
Use an anti-static pad: When configuring the NANO-4386A2, place it on an
antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD damage.
Only handle the edges of the PCB: When handling the PCB, hold it by its
edges.

5.2 Installation Considerations
NOTE:
The following installation notices and installation considerations should
be read and understood before the NANO-4386A2 is installed. All
installation notices pertaining to the installation of the NANO-4386A2
should be strictly adhered to. Failing to adhere to these precautions
may lead to severe damage of the NANO-4386A2 and injury to the
person installing the motherboard.
5.2.1 Installation Notices
WARNING:
The installation instructions described in this manual should be
carefully followed in order to prevent damage to the NANO-4386A2
and injury to the user.
Before and during the installation please DO the following:
Read the user manual:
o The user manual provides a complete description of the NANO-4386A2
installation instructions and configuration options.
Wear an electrostatic discharge cuff (ESD):
o Electronic components are easily damaged by ESD. Wearing an ESD cuff
removes ESD from the body and helps prevent ESD damage.
Place the NANO-4386A2 on an antistatic pad:
o When installing or configuring the motherboard, place it on an antistatic
pad. This helps to prevent potential ESD damage.
Turn off all power to the NANO-4386A2:
Page 71
o When working with the NANO-4386A2, make sure that it is disconnected
from all power supplies and that no electricity is being fed into the system.
Before and during the installation of the NANO-4386A2 DO NOT:
Remove any of the stickers on the PCB board. These stickers are required for
warranty validation.
Use the product before verifying all the cables and power connectors are
properly connected.
Allow screws to come in contact with the PCB circuit, connector pins, or its
components.

5.3 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 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
NANO-4386A2. If any of these components is not installed, the NANO-4386A2 cannot
operate.
5.3.1 Socket 479 CPU Installation
WARNING:
CPUs are expensive and sensitive components. When installing the
CPU please be careful not to damage it in anyway. Make sure the CPU
is installed properly and ensure the correct cooling kit is properly
installed.
To install a socket 479 CPU onto the NANO-4386A2, follow the steps below:
Page 73
NANO-4386A2 Motherboard
WARNING:
When handling the CPU, only hold it on the sides. DO NOT touch the
pins at the bottom of the CPU.
Step 1: Unlock the CPU retention screw. When shipped, the retention screw of the
CPU socket should be in the unlocked position. If it is not in the unlocked
position, use a screwdriver to unlock the screw. See
Figure 5-1: Make sure the CPU socket retention screw is unlocked
Figure 5-1.
Page 74
Step 2: Inspect the CPU socket. Make sure there are no bent pins and make sure the
socket contacts are free of foreign material. If any debris is found, remove it with
compressed air.
Step 3: Correctly Orientate the CPU. Make sure the IHS (integrated heat sink) side is
facing upwards.
NANO-4386A2 Motherboard
Step 4: Correctly position the CPU. Match the Pin 1 mark with the cut edge on the
CPU socket. See
Step 5: Align the CPU pins. Carefully align the CPU pins with the holes in the CPU
socket.
Step 6: Insert the CPU. Gently insert the CPU into the socket. If the CPU pins are
properly aligned, the CPU should slide into the CPU socket smoothly.
Step 7: Lock the retention screw. Rotate the retention screw into the locked position.

An IEI Socket 479 CPU cooling kit (
kit comprises a CPU heat sink and a cooling fan.
Figure 5-3) can be purchased separately. The cooling
WARNING:
Do not wipe off (accidentally or otherwise) the pre-sprayed layer of
thermal paste on the bottom of the CF-479B-RS heat sink. The thermal
paste between the CPU and the heat sink is important for optimum
heat dissipation.
To install the CF-479B-RS cooling kit, please follow the steps below.
Step 1: Place the cooling kit onto the CPU. Make sure the CPU cooling fan cable
can be properly routed when the cooling kit is install ed.
Page 76
Step 2: Properly align the cooling kit. Make sure its four spring screw fasteners can
pass through the pre-drilled holes on the PCB.
Step 3: Secure the cooling kit. From the solder side of the PCB, align the support
bracket to the screw threads on heat sink that were inserted through the PCB
holes. (See
Figure 5-4)
NANO-4386A2 Motherboard
Figure 5-4: Cooling Kit Support Bracket
Step 4: Tighten the screws. Use a screwdriver to tighten the four screws. Tighten each
nut a few turns at a time and do not over-tighten the screws.
Step 5: Connect the fan cable. Connect the cooling kit fan cable to the fan connector
on the motherboard. Carefully route the cable and avoid heat generating chips
and fan blades. See
Figure 5-5: Connect the cooling fan cable

NANO-4386A2 Motherboard
Figure 5-6: SO-DIMM Installation
Step 1: Locate the SO-DIMM socket. Place the NANO-4386A2 on an anti-static pad
with the solder side facing up.
Step 2: Align the SO-DIMM with the socket. The SO-DIMM must be oriented in such a
way that the notch in the middle of the SO-DIMM must be aligned with the
plastic bridge in the socket.
Page 78
Step 3: Insert the SO-DIMM. Push the SO-DIMM chip into the socket at an angle. (See
Figure 5-6)
NANO-4386A2 Motherboard
Step 4: Open the SO-DIMM socket arms. Gently pull the arms of the SO-DIMM socket

5.4 Jumper Settings
NOTE:
A jumper is a metal bridge used to close an
electrical circuit. It consists of two or three metal
pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a
plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect
