Removing or Installing the Cooling Shroud Fan

CAUTION:

Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You

should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your
product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and
support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered
by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the
product.

NOTICE:

Never remove the memory cooling shroud without first powering down

the system. Overheating of the system can develop quickly resulting in a shutdown
of the system and the loss of data.

1 Remove the front bezel, if attached. See "Removing the Bezel" on

page 64.

2 Open the system. See "Opening the System" on page 67.
3 Release the fan bracket from the cooling shroud by squeezing the blue

latches on each side of the fan bracket, and then rotate the bracket to
the up position. See Figure 3-13.

NOTE:

Do not remove the cooling shroud from the system to perform this

step.

4 Remove the fan from the bracket by squeezing the release handles on

top of the fan and pulling the fan out of the bracket. See Figure 3-13.

NOTICE:

Do not remove more than one fan from the system at a time and do not

operate the system with any fan removed for an extended period of time.
Overheating can occur resulting in a system shutdown and loss of data.

5 Replace the fan.
6 Rotate the fan bracket toward the shroud and slightly squeeze the side

tabs so that the tabs enter the latch slots.

7 Close the system. See "Closing the System" on page 68.
8 Replace the front bezel, if removed.
