4.7 Replacing the processor
V CAUTION!
Processors are modules which can react extremely sensitive to electro-
static discharges and therefore must always be handled with care. After
a processor has been removed from its protective sleeve or from its
socket, place it with its smooth side down on a non-conducting, antistatic
surface. Never push a processor over a surface.
Ê Open the server as described in the section “Preparation” on page 17.
