Installing the Fan Array Housing

1. Observe the safety precautions, warnings, and cautions at the beginning of this chapter.
2. Reinstall the fan array housing ensuring that it engages with the support tabs (A in Figure 26).
✏NOTE
When installing the fan array housing, be careful not to accidentally move
the thin sheet of insulating material on the front panel board. Proper
insertion of the LED light pipes depends on the correct alignment of the
insulating material.
3. Insert the screws that you removed earlier and tighten the screws firmly (8.0 inch-pounds).
4. Reinstall each fan assembly. The fan assemblies are keyed and can be installed in only one way.
5. Reinstall the top cover, the fan array assembly cover, and the memory module cover.
