The Armada E500, E500S, and Armada V300 computers use an
electrical 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
applications. Exhaust air is displaced through the ventilation grill located
on the right side of the computer.
CAUTION: To properly ventilate the computer, allow at least a
3-inch (7.6 cm) clearance on the left and right sides of the computer.
