Processor Module
CAUTION:
To prevent intermittent contact between the ZIF-socket cam screw
and the processor when removing or replacing the processor, press to apply slight
pressure to the centre of the processor while turning the cam screw.
CAUTION:
To avoid damage to the processor, hold the screwdriver so that it is
perpendicular to the processor when turning the cam screw.
10 To loosen the ZIF socket, use a small, flat-blade screwdriver and rotate the
ZIF-socket cam screw counterclockwise until it comes to the cam stop.
CAUTION:
To ensure maximum cooling for the processor module, do not touch
the heat transfer areas on the processor thermal-cooling assembly. The oils in
your skin can reduce the heat transfer capability of the thermal pads.
