Fan Description Fan Spare part number 925012-001 NOTE: To properly ventilate the computer, allow at least 7.6 cm (3.0 in) of clearance on the left side of the computer. The computer uses an electric fan for ventilation. The fan is controlled by a temperature sensor and is designed to turn on automatically when high temperature conditions exist. These conditions are affected by high external temperatures, system power consumption, power management/battery conservation configurations, battery fast charging, and software requirements. Exhaust air is displaced through the ventilation grill located on the left side of the computer. Before removing the fan/heat sink assembly, follow these steps: 1. Shut down the computer. If you are unsure whether the computer is off or in Hibernation, turn the computer on, and then shut it down through the operating system. 2. Disconnect all external devices connected to the computer. 3. Disconnect the power from the computer by first unplugging the power cord from the AC outlet and then unplugging the AC adapter from the computer. 4. Remove the battery (see Battery on page 32). 5. Remove the optical drive (see Optical drive on page 33), if installed. 6. Remove the bottom cover (see Bottom cover on page 43). To remove the fan: 1. Lift the cables (antenna, display, power connector) from atop the screw (1). 2. Disconnect the fan cable (2) from the system board. 3. Remove the Phillips PM2.5×6.5 screw (3) that secures the fan to the computer. Component replacement procedures 59
