Dust it, let it acclimitize to whatever room it is going to be used in and turn it on. 

 

As it has been lying about for a couple of months, no doubt getting in the way and being moved now and then, you may want to check all connectors are tight, but you certainly shouldn't have to change the TIM or anything like that.
