Heat Sinks Removing the Heat Sink CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the product. 1 Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect the system from its electrical outlet. 2 Remove the system-board assembly. See "Removing a System-Board Assembly" on page 68. WARNING: The heat sink may be hot to touch for some time after the system has been powered down. Allow the heat sink to cool before removing it. CAUTION: Never remove the heat sink from a processor unless you intend to remove the processor. The heat sink is necessary to maintain proper thermal conditions. 3 Using a Phillips screwdriver, loosen one of the heat-sink retention screws. See Figure 3-7. Wait for 30 seconds for the heat sink to loosen from the processor. 4 Remove the other three heat-sink retention screws. 5 Gently lift the heat sink off the processor and set the heat sink aside with thermal grease side facing up. 70 | Installing System Components
