Using a 17 mm open-ended wrench, slacken the quick-release lock a quarter
turn.
Pull out the left cover of the fan subassembly. To do this, move the left cover
parallel to the fan subassembly in order to avoid damaging the plug-in contact
on the other side.
The following figure shows you how to remove the left cover.

split up the individual plates as required.
2. Remove the dummy plates which are not required by slackening the snap-in
mechanisms of the covers and pulling them off.
