3. Open the RPi4's DSI connector by pulling softly both sides of the tiny black tongue. When it's totally open, push the ribbon cable inside, leaving the blue side facing out. When you are 100% sure the cable is totally inserted, close the connector by pushing the tongue with 2 fingers, one each hand.

Having understand all this, you may realize this is a key step for getting you V5 working at 100% of its capacity, so don't be in a hurry and take your time for doing a good work. Let's start!

1. Look for a piece of thermal pad in the wiring bag, in the "Screen and Bits" case. It is a piece with an approximate size of 60 x 20 mm, gray on one side and blue on the other.

2. Cut 4 little pieces of thermal pad with this recommended sizes:

2. Cut 4 little pieces of thermal pad with this recommended sizes:

=> 27 x 20 mm

* 27 x 20 mm

=> 11 x 11 mm

* 11 x 11 mm

=> 11 x 9 mm

=> 6 x 6 mm

3. You should have received a 60x20 mm piece of thermal pad, so you could proceed by cutting strips like these:

* 6 x 20 mm => cut this to get the tiny 6x6 mm piece

+ 11 x 20 mm => cut this to get 11x11 & 9x11 mm pieces

4. Remove the blue protective sheet from the 3 smaller pieces and glue them to the inner side of the thermal block, the one that makes contact with the RPi4. You'll recognize it because it has 3 small rectangular islands that fit the size of the 3 smaller pieces you cut out. You can use your finger to press the thermal pad and stick it. Use your fingernail to cut off the excess, if any.

6. After this, remove the transparent protective sheet from the 3 pieces of thermal pad and fixate the RBPi4 compute module to the thermal block using the 4 x ISO7380 M2.5 screws.

7. Finally, stick the remaining piece of thermal pad (27 x 20 mm) on the contact surface in the external side of the thermal block. That is, on top of the "tower" with 2 tiny holes. Follow the same procedure you already did with the 3 smaller pieces, but don't remove the transparent protective sheet yet.
