Inserting a new fan assembly
4. Remove the fan assembly from the anti-static shielded bag.
5. Holding the fan assembly level, guide it into the carrier rails on each side and gently push it all the
way into the slot, ensuring that it firmly engages with the connector.
6. When you are sure the fan assembly has properly engaged the connector, tighten the captive screw
to secure the fan assembly in the slot.
When a fan assembly is installed in a slot, the power LED on the fan assembly should turn on green to
confirm that the fan assembly is correctly installed and running. Refer to "LED activity interpretation" on
page 45.
Caution
If you do not install a module or a power supply in a slot, you must keep the slot filler panel in
place. If you run the chassis with an uncovered slot, the system will overheat.
