Processor fan Description Processor fan Spare part number 448162-001 NOTE: To properly ventilate the computer, allow at least a 7.6-cm (3-inch) clearance on the left and right sides and rear panel of the computer. The computer uses two electric fans for ventilation. The fans are controlled by a temperature sensor and are 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 grills located on the computer rear panel. Before removing the processor fan, 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 38). 5. Remove the following components: a. Hard drive (see Hard drive on page 45) b. Optical drive (see Optical drive on page 52) c. Keyboard (see Keyboard on page 54) d. Hinge cover (see Hinge cover on page 56) e. Rear cover (see Rear cover on page 57) f. Top cover (see Top cover on page 59) g. Subwoofer (see Subwoofer on page 72) Remove the processor fan: 1.
