To remove the SEC cartridge/heat sink assembly, follow these steps: 1. Remove the system power supply. WARNING: The SEC cartridge/heat sink assembly can get extremely hot during system operations. Be sure that the assembly has had sufficient time to cool before touching it. 2. Locate the SEC cartridge/heat sink assembly. 3. Disconnect the microprocessor fan connector from the 3-pin connector on the system board (labeled "FAN"), located between the SERIAL 2 connector and the MONITOR connector (see Figure 5-18). 4. Release the two securing clips near the base of the heat sink from the metal standoffs, as shown in Figure 5-22. 5. Locate and press inward on the SEC cartridge release latches (located directly on top of the SEC cartridge adjacent to the heat sink assembly) until the latches click. 6. Lift the SEC cartridge/heat sink assembly out of its guide bracket assembly/connector on the system board. NOTE: When installing the SEC cartridge/heat sink assembly, carefully orient the assembly and press firmly with up to 25 pounds of force to mate the SEC cartridge with its connector. Then slide the SEC cartridge release latches outward to lock the assembly onto the metal standoffs. System Battery battery Figure 5-23.
