KINO-AQ870 4.1 An ti-s ta tic P re c a u tio n s WARNING: Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the KINO-AQ870 may result in permanent damage to the KINO-AQ870 and severe injury to the user. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the KINO-AQ870. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD.
KINO-AQ870 4.2 In s ta lla tio n Co n s id e ra tio n s NOTE: The following installation notices and installation considerations should be read and understood before the KINO-AQ870 is installed. All installation notices pertaining to the installation of the KINO-AQ870 should be strictly adhered to. Failing to adhere to these precautions may lead to severe damage of the KINO-AQ870 and injury to the person installing the motherboard.
KINO-AQ870 Before and during the installation of the KINO-AQ870 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. 4.3 Ba s ic In s ta lla tio n WARNING: A CPU should never be turned on without the specified cooling kit being installed.
KINO-AQ870 To install the CPU, follow the steps below. S te p 1: Disengage the load lever by pressing the lever down and slightly outwards to clear the retention tab. Fully open the lever. See Figure 4-1. Figure 4-1: Disengage the CPU Socket Load Lever S te p 2: Open the socket and remove the protective cover. The black protective cover can be removed by pulling up on the tab labeled “Remove”. See Figure 4-2. Figure 4-2: Remove Protective Cover S te p 3: Inspect the CPU socket.
KINO-AQ870 S te p 4: Orientate the CPU properly. The contact array should be facing the CPU socket. S te p 5: Correctly position the CPU. Match the Pin 1 mark with the CPU edge on the CPU socket. S te p 6: Align the CPU pins. Locate pin 1 and the two orientation notches on the CPU. Carefully match the two orientation notches on the CPU with the socket alignment keys. S te p 7: Insert the CPU. Gently insert the CPU into the socket.

Connect the 12 V power from the power supply to the board. 4.3.2 Co o lin g Kit In s ta lla tio n WARNING: DO NOT attempt to install a push-pin cooling fan. The pre-installed support bracket prevents the board from bending and is ONLY compatible with captive screw type cooling fans. The cooling kits can be bought from IEI. The cooling kit has a heat sink and fan.
KINO-AQ870 To install the cooling kit, follow the instructions below. S te p 1: A cooling kit bracket is pre-installed on the rear of the motherboard. See Figure 4-5. Figure 4-5: Cooling Kit Support Bracket S te p 2: Place the cooling kit onto the socket LGA1150 CPU. Make sure the CPU cable can be properly routed when the cooling kit is installed. S te p 3: Mount the cooling kit. Gently place the cooling kit on top of the CPU.
KINO-AQ870 Figure 4-6: DIMM Installation S te p 1: Open the DIMM socket handles. Open the two handles outwards as far as they can. See Figure 4-6. S te p 2: Align the DIMM with the socket. Align the DIMM so the notch on the memory lines up with the notch on the memory socket. See Figure 4-6. S te p 3: Insert the DIMM. Once aligned, press down until the DIMM is properly seated. Clip the two handles into place. See Figure 4-6. S te p 4: Remove a DIMM. To remove a DIMM, push both handles outwards.
