4. Grasp the handles and partially remove the cooling module to expose two of the four axial
fans, and allow them to spin down, as shown in the preceding figure.
Important:
Do not leave the cooling module in a partially open position for an extended period of
time because the metal of the cooling module can rest on top of the spinning fans of the
companion cooling module and cause significant loss in air volume.
Warning:
The cooling module is heavy. Use both hands to support the weight of the module.
5. Grasp the cooling module on both sides midway between the front and rear fans to support
the weight of the cooling module. Continue to slide the module out of the chassis.
Caution:
To prevent data loss from a module overheating and shutting down, do not allow the chassis
to operate for an extended period of time with only a single cooling module. Keep the failed
cooling module installed in the chassis until you have a replacement module or keep a
replacement cooling module available for immediate replacement.
