WARNING:

The processor is held in its socket under strong pressure. Be aware

that the release lever can spring up suddenly if not firmly grasped.

10 Position your thumb firmly over the processor socket-release lever and

release the lever from the locked position. Rotate the lever 90 degrees
upwards. See Figure 3-22.

11 Rotate the processor shield upwards and out of the way. See Figure 3-22.

CAUTION:

Be careful not to bend any of the pins on the ZIF socket when removing

the processor. Bending the pins can permanently damage the system board.
