Step 8
Touch the static-protective package that contains the adapter to any unpainted metal surface on the
device, and then remove the adapter from the static-protective package. Avoid touching the components
and gold-plated edge connectors on the adapter.
Step 9 Place the adapter, component-side up, on a flat, static-protective surface.
Caution When you install an adapter in the device, be sure that it is completely and correctly seated in the PCI
expansion slot before you power up the device. Incomplete insertion might cause damage to the system
board or the adapter.
Step 10 To install the adapter, carefully grasp the adapter by its top edge or upper corners, align it with the
expansion slot in the riser card assembly, and then press the adapter firmly into the expansion slot.
Step 11 Reinstall the riser card. Make sure that the riser card is fully seated in the riser card connectors on the
system board.
