Installing System Components
WARNING:
The heat sink and processor are hot to the touch for some time after
the system has been powered down. Allow the heat sink and processor to cool
before handling them.
CAUTION:
Never remove the heat sink from a processor unless you intend to
remove the processor. The heat sink is necessary to maintain proper thermal
conditions.
6 Open one of the heat-sink retention latches by pressing the end of the
latch, moving it laterally away from the heat sink, and lifting the latch
upwards. See Figure 3-21.
7 Wait 30 seconds for the heat sink to loosen from the processor.
8 Open the other heat-sink retention latch.
9 Gently lift the heat sink up from the processor and set the heat sink aside
upside-down (thermal grease side facing up).
