Appendix A - Smart Fan Setting Guide

Entering the Smart Fan Function
The BIOS Setup Utility can only be operated from the keyboard and all commands are key-
board commands. The commands are available at the right side of each setup screen.
The BIOS Setup Utility does not require an operating system to run. After you power up the
system, press the <Del> key or <F2>.
Note:
The BIOS is constantly updated to improve the performance of the system board;
therefore the BIOS screens in this chapter may not appear the same as the actual
one. These screens are for reference purpose only.
1. Select Advanced, and then PC Health Status. Enter to Smart Fan Function for the smart
fan setting.
