When installing:
• Before you attach the fan assembly to the computer, apply thermal grease, at an amount of 0.2 grams, on the
a
part marked as in the following figure. Either too much or too less application of grease can cause a thermal
problem due to imperfect contact with a component.
• Make sure that the fan connector is attached firmly.

Note: In ThinkPad W701 and W701ds, thermal putty is used between the thermal device/fan and the video
