Fan and heat sink assembly

Description
Fan and heat sink assembly (includes replacement thermal material)
NOTE: To properly ventilate the device, allow at least a 7.6-cm (3-inch) clearance on the left side of
the device. The device uses an electric 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 requirements. Exhaust air is displaced
through the ventilation grill located on the left side of the device.
