ASUS Maximus Extreme 2-1

2.1 Before you proceed

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components

or change any motherboard settings.

• Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any

component.

• Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or

a metal object, such as the power supply case, before handling

components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity.

• Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.

• Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded

antistatic pad or in the bag that came with the component.

• Before you install or remove any component, ensure

that the ATX power supply is switched off or the power cord is detached

from the power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the

motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.
