1.9.2.4 Air Filter
The ME60-X8 draws in air from the front top and exhausts air from the rear top. There is a 3
U space in the upper part of the chassis and an air filter on the front of the chassis. To
maximize air intake, the filter is fully perforated. The air filter is fixed to the chassis by a
fastener to facilitate filter removal and replacement. Figure 1-71 shows the appearance of an
air filter.

Placing a black sponge air filter on the air intake vent helps to prevent dust from entering the system.
Cleaning the air filter once every three months is recommended.
