    • To avoid electrocution, shut down the computer. Do not open the computer or attempt to install any items inside it while the computer is on.

    • To avoid being burned, wait at least 10 minutes to allow the computer's internal components to cool.

  2. rBARHUQtVA6lfOWt

    • Lift the tab to unlock the side panel.

    • The panel should fall out. If the panel does not fall out by itself pull a little from the edges.

  5. Tl3ovQWEjHJZWcFX

    • Locate the top left cooling fan unit.

    • After pulling out the fan unit, the area should look like this.

Abschluss

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

Actually you do need to remove the plastic air deflector, as the fan in question is behind it.
