Installing and Removing the Heat Sink

7 Wait 30 seconds for the heat sink to loosen from the processor.
8 Gently lift the heat sink off of the processor and set the heat sink aside.

NOTE:

Lay the heat sink on its side to avoid contaminating the thermal

adhesive on the bottom of the heat sink.

NOTICE:

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 socket-release lever and release the

lever from the locked position. Rotate the lever 90 degrees upward until
the processor is released from the socket. See Figure 3-35.

10 Rotate the processor shield upward and out of the way.
