•Before unplugging the power supply cable from the motherboard, make sure the power supply

has been turned off.

•Before turning on the power, make sure the power supply voltage has been set according to

the local voltage standard.

•Before using the product, please verify that all cables and power connectors of your hardware

components are connected.

•To prevent damage to the motherboard, do not allow screws to come in contact with the

motherboard circuit or its components.

•Make sure there are no leftover screws or metal components placed on the motherboard or

within the computer casing.

•Do not place the computer system on an uneven surface.

•Do not place the computer system in a high-temperature environment.

•Turning on the computer power during the installation process can lead to damage to system

components as well as physical harm to the user.

•If you are uncertain about any installation steps or have a problem related to the use of the

product,pleaseconsultacertiedcomputertechnician.
