Applying thermal paste to the CPU surface
For Japan, the service engineer must follow the instruction provided
separately.
If the CPU upgrade or replacement kit contains a new heat sink, a thin
layer of thermal compound has already been pre-applied to its lower
surface. In this case, it isn't necessary to apply thermal paste to the
CPU surface.
