8. Visibly inspect the fans and all air openings for dirt, and clean if necessary.
Note – System cooling might be affected by dust and contaminant build-up.
Therefore, you should open and check systems approximately every six months (or
more often in dirty operating environments). Check system heatsinks, fans, and air
openings. If necessary, clean systems by carefully brushing, blowing, or vacuuming
contaminants from the system.

a. Unfasten the single screw that secures each fan connector board to the
