Pull the release tabs back to release the door. Open the top cover toward the rear

Note – Close the top cover door after about 60 seconds to maintain airflow in the
server. Leaving the door open for more than 60 seconds while the server is running
might cause the server to overheat and shut down.

The Fan Fault LEDs are located on the fan board.
4. Using thumb and forefinger in between the two fans, pull the fan module up
and out of the connector.
Caution – When changing the fan modules, note that only the fan modules can be
removed or replaced. Do not service any other components in the fan compartment
unless the system is shut down and the power cords are removed.
