3 Carefully disconnect and move any cables that are routed over the heat

CAUTION:

Despite having a plastic shield, the heat sink assembly may be very

you touch it.

4 Remove heat sink (see step 6 of "Removing the Processor" on page 148).
5 Disconnect the processor fan cable from the system board (see "System

Board Components" on page 107).

6 Ensure that all cables have been removed from the routing clips on the top

of the processor fan assembly.
