NOTICE: To ensure maximum cooling for the processor module, do not touch the heat transfer
areas on the processor heatsink assembly. The oils in your skin can reduce the heat transfer
capability of the thermal pads.
NOTICE: When removing the processor, pull the processor straight up. Be careful not to bend
the pins on the processor module.
4. Lift the processor module from the ZIF socket.
12.2 Replacing the Processor Module
CAUTION: Before you begin any of the procedures in this section, follow the safety
instructions that shipped with your computer.
NOTICE: Do not touch the processor die. Press and hold the processor module down on the
substrate on which the die is mounted while turning the cam screw to prevent intermittent
contact between the cam screw and processor.
NOTICE: Ensure that the cam lock is in the fully open position before seating the processor
module. Seating the processor module properly in the ZIF socket does not require force. A
processor module that is not properly seated can result in an intermittent connection or
permanent damage to the microprocessor and ZIF socket.
