The CPU heat sink is under the fan pointing down towards the motherboard. You lift those 2 levers to release it, and there's likely another lever under it all locking the CPU into the socket.
The picture is not very clear, but it looks as if the heatsink on the processor has collected a lot of dust, probably blocking the air flow. Do not yet remove the heat sink ( I am always weary of doing so) but try to remove the dust first if there is a lot of it.
