4 Unplug the heat sink’s cooling fan from the system board.
5 Press down on the heat sink locking levers, push them slightly away from
the heat sink, then lift the levers out of the way.
6 Remove the heat sink.
Important The heat sink mounting paste may harden over time and
hold the heat sink securely to the processor. If removing
the heat sink also pulls the processor out of the processor
socket, the processor should still be undamaged. Rotate
the processor locking lever out of the way and continue
with the procedure in Step 9.
