NOTICE:
When removing the processor module, pull the module straight up. Be careful not to bend the pins on the processor module.
NOTICE:
Ensure that the cam lock is in the fully open position before seating the processor module. Seating the processor module properly in the ZIF
socket does not require force. A processor module that is not properly seated can result in an intermittent connection or permanent damage to the
processor and ZIF socket.
NOTE:
The pin-1 corner of the processor module has a triangle that aligns with the triangle on the pin-1 corner of the ZIF socket.
NOTICE:
To avoid damage to the processor, hold the screwdriver so that it is perpendicular to the processor when turning the cam screw.
NOTE:
When you replace the processor thermal-cooling assembly, be sure to place a new thermal pad on the processor thermal-cooling assembly.
NOTICE:
To avoid damage to the keyboard, ensure that you attach the keyboard securely before moving the computer.
