Replacing the air baffle

This procedure applies only to 4U server models with non-hot-swap power supplies.

To install the air baffle on 4U server models with non-hot-swap power supplies, complete the following steps.

1. Read the safety information in Safety and Installation guidelines.
2. Align the tabs on the air baffle with the slots on the chassis.
3. Lower the air baffle into the server.
   Attention

   • Make note of the microprocessor power cable routing, as the cable may interfere with the air baffle installation.

   • Make sure that the tabs on the air baffle are inserted into the holes on the chassis and no cables are not caught or pinched.
   • For proper cooling and airflow, reinstall the air baffle before you turn on the server. Operating the server with the air baffle removed might damage server components.
