    Note: Place the component on an antistatic mat if it must be set aside for any reason.
  2. Insert the motherboard into the Pilot by grasping the middle of the air deflector in the front and back and tilting the front of the motherboard up slightly and pushing it into the opening in the rear of the Pilot chassis.
