Removal and replacement procedures Remove the fan: 1. Disconnect the fan cable 1 from the system board. 2. Loosen the captive Phillips PM2.0×7.0 screw 2 that secures the fan to the base enclosure, and then remove the fan 3 from the heat sink. Reverse this procedure to install the fan. ✎ To properly ventilate the computer, allow at least a 7.6-cm (3-inch) 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. Maintenance and Service Guide 4-33
