Installing System Components

CAUTION:

The processor is held in its socket under strong pressure. Be aware

that the release lever can spring up suddenly if not firmly grasped.

9 Position your thumb firmly over the processor socket-release lever and

release the lever from the locked position by pushing down and pulling out
from under the tab. Rotate the lever 90 degrees upward until the processor
is released from the socket. See Figure 3-28.

10 Use the tab on the processor shield to rotate processor shield upward and

out of the way. See Figure 3-28.

Figure 3-28.

Removing the Processor

CAUTION:

Be careful not to bend any of the pins on the ZIF socket when removing

the processor. Bending the pins can permanently damage the system board.

11 Carefully, lift the processor out of the socket and leave the release lever up

so that the socket is ready for the new processor.

After removing the processor, place it in an antistatic container for reuse,
return, or temporary storage. Do not touch the bottom of the processor.
Touch only the side edges of the processor.
