Remove the bottom cover (see Bottom cover on page 21). 5. Disconnect the battery (see Battery on page 22). 6. Remove the fan (see Fan on page 32). Remove the heat sink: 1. Remove the four Phillips PM2.0×3.0 screws (1) that secure the heat sink to the system board. NOTE: Due to the adhesive quality of the thermal material located between the heat sink and system board components, it may be necessary to move the heat sink from side to side to detach it. 2.
