With this the task to close the casing is finished and you can turn the
system back on at any time.
5.3 Fan Maintenance
To cool the many hard disks installed in the system as well as the other
electronic parts (e.g. the motherboard), the system is equipped with
several fans that can be exchanged in case of a failure easily. This sec-

When a fan failure occurs, you will be notified by a lit alarm LED and
the sounding of an alarm buzzer of the system. The alarm can be

The system your are working on operates with voltages
that can be hazardous to your health. Never work on the
system or access its interior with the power cable(s) being
plugged in. Make sure the power supply is disconnected
from the components you intend to work on.
Fan maintenance should only be performed by personnel
qualified for handling and testing electrical equipment.
Computer hardware contains components that are sensitive
to electrostatic discharge. If you touch them without precau-
tionary measures, they can be destroyed. Use a wrist strap
connected to ground when accessing electronic parts and
take care of grounding the system. Avoid touching the inter-
nal components of the computer system.
