Step 3. Apply thermal grease.
a. Carefully place the processor and carrier in the shipping tray with the processor-contact side

shipping tray.
b. If there is any old thermal grease on the processor, gently wipe the top of the processor with
an alcohol cleaning pad.
Note: Make sure the alcohol has fully evaporated before applying new thermal grease.
c. Apply the thermal grease on the top of the processor with a syringe by forming four uniformly
spaced dots, while each dot consists of about 0.1 ml of thermal grease.
