Fan Exhausts
HINT: The computer turns on the fan only when the computer gets hot. It may
run most of the time or very seldom, depending on your use of the computer.
Because the fan spins at a high rate of speed, it may make a noise. This noise is
normal and does not indicate a problem with the fan or the computer.
The fan works with the air intake to prevent the computer from overheating. When
the computer gets hot, the small internal fan turns on and draws air through the air
intake to cool the computer. Hot air is expelled through the fan exhaust.
CAUTION: Do not push objects into or block the air intake. Doing so can
cause fire or damage interior components. Keep the opening free from
dust and other foreign particles.
