Replacing the Heat Sink and Fan

NOTE: The original thermal grease can be reused if the original system board and heat sink are reinstalled together. If either the system board or the heat sink is replaced, use the thermal pad provided in the kit to ensure that thermal conductivity is achieved.

2Clean the thermal grease from the bottom of the heat sink and reapply it.

3Align the screw holes on the heat sink with the screw holes on the system board.

4In sequential order (indicated on the heat sink), replace the six screws that secure the heat sink to the system board.

5Connect the fan cable to the system-board connector.

6Adhere the display cable tape to the heat sink.
