Figure 6-3. Replacing System Cooling Fans
Replacing System Fans
1. If necessary, open the chassis while the power is running to determine which
fan requires changing. (Never run the server for an extended period of time
with the chassis open.)
2. Press the fan release tab to lift the failed fan from the chassis and pull it
completely from the chassis.
3. Place the new fan into the vacant space in the housing, while making sure
the arrows on the top of the fan (indicating air direction) point in the same
direction as the arrows on the other fans.
4. Power up the system and check that the fan is working properly before re-
placing the chassis cover.
