The computer uses an electrical fan for ventilation. The fan is
controlled by a temperature sensor and is designed to turn on
automatically when high temperature conditions exist. These
conditions are affected by high external temperatures, system
power consumption, power management/battery conservation
configurations, battery fast charging, and software applications.
Exhaust air is displaced through the ventilation grill located on
the right side of the computer.

CAUTION: To properly ventilate the computer, allow at least a 3-inch
(7.6 cm) clearance on the left and right sides of the computer.
