Replacing an I/O fan 1. Determine which fan you will replace. 2. Remove the top cover (see "Removing the top cover" on page 136). 3. Pull up the fastener 1 in the center of the fan 2 . This places the fastener in the unlocked position. 4. Lift the fan out of the server. 5. Insert the replacement fan in the fan bay. Align the connector on the bottom of the fan with the matching connector in the server chassis. 6. When you have the fan correctly seated in the fan bay, press down on the fastener in the center of the fan to secure the fan in the server. Note When you correctly seat the fan in the chassis, the fan blades begin to spin. The fan LED goes out a few seconds after the new fan is installed. 7. If you have other options to install or remove, do so now; otherwise, continue with "Completing the installation" on page 56. Netfinity 8500R - Type 8681 145
