. Fan Filter Removal and Cleaning Front-Fan Filters Firstly, open up the whole front panel & door. Chapter3 Motherboard & Leads Installation 3. Motherboard Installation Each motherboard has different standoff layout. It is highly suggested that you refer to your motherboard's manual when installing motherboard into the Case. The cases are applicable with Standard ATX, Micro ATX. Your motherboard may require a special I/O Panel, which should be included with your motherboard. Placement Direction: When installing the motherboard, make sure you follow the direction provided by your motherboard manufacturer. On most standard motherboards, the edge with external ports goes to the rear part of the chassis. It is highly recommended that you install CPU, heat sink and modular components before fixing the motherboard inside the chassis. Take off the Fan Grille, then the filter can be removed. This side towards the rear of the chassis = the locations of the screw holes. Note these locations and place included standoffs on the chassis first. Above illustration is a sample of what the motherboard's layout. For more detail screw hole placement, please refer to your motherboard manual. 3
3. Case LED connections 3.3 USB.0 & IEEE394 Firewire connection On the front of the case, you can find some LEDs and switch leads (POWER SW*, POWER LED*, H.D.D. LED*, RESET SW*). Please consult user manual of your motherboard manufacturer, then connect these leads to the panel header on the motherboard. These leads are usually labeled; if not, please trace them back to the case front to find out their source. - POWER LED connects to your M/B at the PLED. - POWER SW connects to the PWR connector on the motherboard. - H.D.D LED connects to the -pin labeled HDD LED connector. - RESET SW connects to the RSW connector on the motherboard.
