8. The Active Air Chimney
The innovative Nanoxia Active Air Chimney allows the easy dissipation of hot air in case of a
heat buildup under the top cover: Once the Air Chimney is opened, the connected fans are
automatically activated. When the Active Air Chimney is closed, the fans are switched off
again.
8.1 Connecting the fans to the Active Air Chimney
At the back of the motherboard tray, you can find a circuit board to which you can connect up
to three fans. It is powered by a 3-pin Molex connector that is connected directly to the power
supply.
To connect fans to the Active Air Chimney, first you need to remove the right side panel (seen
from the front) and the top cover (see chapter 5.2). Next, connect the fans to connectors
labeled the F1, F2 and F3 on the circuit board.
Then put the cover back on the case. As a
last step, please connect the cable from the
switch of the Active Air Chimney back to the
circuit board (see drawing).

activates the pre-installed case fans under the top cover. To close the Air Chimney simply slide
the tab back in the opposite position. This will also deactivate the fans.
