equpment generates, uses and can radate rado frequency energy and, f not nstalled
and used n accordance wth the nstructons, may cause harmful nterference to rado
communcatons. However, there s no guarantee that nterference wll not occur n a

user s encouraged to try to correct the nterference by one or more of the measures
lsted below.
Reorent or relocate the recevng antenna.
Increase the separaton between the equpment and recever.
Connect the equpment nto an outlet on a crcut derent from that to whch the

Assembly Precautons
The components ncluded n ths package are prone to damage from electrostatc
dscharge (ESD). Please adhere to the followng nstructons to ensure successful
computer assembly.
Always turn o the power supply and unplug the power cord from the power outlet
before nstallng or removng any computer component.
Ensure that all components are securely connected. Loose connectons may cause
the computer to not recognze a component or fal to start.
Hold the manboard by the edges to avod touchng senstve components.
It s recommended to wear an electrostatc dscharge (ESD) wrst strap when handlng
the manboard to prevent electrostatc damage. If an ESD wrst strap s not avalable,
dscharge yourself of statc electrcty by touchng another metal object before han-
dlng the manboard.
Store the manboard n an electrostatc sheldng contaner or on an antstatc pad
whenever the manboard s not nstalled.
Before turnng on the computer, ensure that there are no loose screws or metal com-
ponents on the manboard or anywhere wthn the computer case.
Do not use the computer n a hgh-temperature envronment.
Do not boot the computer before nstallaton s completed. Ths could cause perma-
nent damage to the components as well as njury to the user.
If you need help durng any nstallaton step, please consult a certed computer tech-
ncan.
Important
A screwdrver (not ncluded) may be requred for computer assembly.

Clear CMOS Button
There s CMOS RAM present on board that s powered by an external battery to store
system conguraton data. Usng CMOS RAM, the system can automatcally boot nto
the operatng system (OS) every tme t s turned on. If you wsh to clear the system
conguraton, press the button to clear the data.
Coaxal S/PDIF-Out
Ths S/PDIF (Sony & Phlps Dgtal Interconnect Format) connector s provded for
dgtal audo transmsson to external speakers through a coaxal cable.
Optcal S/PDIF-Out
Ths S/PDIF (Sony & Phlps Dgtal Interconnect Format) connector s provded for
dgtal audo transmsson to external speakers through an optcal ber cable.
USB 2.0 Port
The USB 2.0 port s for attachng USB 2.0 devces such as keyboard, mouse, or other
USB 2.0-compatble devces.
USB 3.0 Port
USB 3.0 port s backward-compatble wth USB 2.0 devces. It supports data transfer
rate up to 5 Gbt/s (SuperSpeed).
Important
In order to use USB 3.0 devces, you must connect to a USB 3.0 port. If a USB cable s
used, t must be USB 3.0 complant.
