System Cooling

Eight 4-cm hot-swap fans provide the cooling for the system. It is very important that the
chassis top cover is properly installed and forms a seal in order for the cooling air to circulate
properly through the chassis and cool the components.
Replacing a Fan
1. If necessary, open the chassis while the power is running to determine which fan
requires changing. (Never run the system for an extended period of time with the
chassis open.)
2. Open the chassis cover.
3. Remove the failed fan from the chassis.
4. Place the new fan into the vacant space in the housing while making sure the arrows on
the top of the fan (indicating air direction) point in the same direction as the arrows on
the other fans.
