How can i install bumblebee on elementary os?

I'm using elementary os freya with UEFI mode. My laptop has two graphic cards (Intel 4400 and Nvidia 860 gtx) and it is getting so hot after using about 30-60 minutes.

I tried some ways to install bumblebee but in each way nvidia module not installed correctly and said :

modprobe: FATAL: Module bbswitch not found. [ 924.996622] [ERROR]Module bbswitch could not be loaded (timeout?) [ 924.996656] [WARN]No switching method available. The dedicated card will always be on. [ 924.997915] [ERROR]Module 'nvidia' is not found. 

Any ideas?
