7. To install the heatsink, apply thermal grease to the top of the processor. (If
reinstalling a heatsink, first clean off the old thermal grease with a clean, lint-free
cloth.)

other screw.

Figure 3-3. Installing a G34 Processor in a Socket
3-4 Onboard Battery Installation
A battery is included on the mainboard to supply certain volatile memory components
with power when power has been removed from the blade module. If this battery dies, it
must be replaced with an equivalent CR2032 Lithium 3V battery. Dispose of used
batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions. See Figure 3-4 for a diagram of
installing a new onboard battery.
NOTE: Do not overtighten the screws as this may damage the processor or the
heatsink.
WARNING: There is a danger of explosion if the onboard battery is installed
upside down, which reverses its polarities.
