WARNING:
Do not wipe off (accidentally or otherwise) the pre-sprayed layer of
thermal paste on the bottom of the [Fan model#] heat sink. The thermal
paste between the CPU and the heat sink is important for optimum
heat dissipation.
To install the CF-479B-RS cooling kit, please follow the steps below.
Step 1: Place the cooling kit onto the CPU. Make sure the CPU cooling fan cable
can be properly routed when the cooling kit is installed.
Step 2: Properly align the cooling kit. Make sure its four spring screw fasteners can
pass through the pre-drilled holes on the PCB.
Step 3: Secure the cooling kit. From the solder side of the PCB, align the support
bracket to the screw threads on heat sink that were inserted through the PCB
holes. (See Figure 5-4)
