Installing the air baffle

Use this information to install the air baffle.

Note

When you install the second microprocessor, you must also install fan 2 and the air baffle that come with the second microprocessor upgrade kit.

Read the safety information in Safety and Installation guidelines.

If you are replacing a server component in the server, you need to turn off the server and peripheral devices, and disconnect the power cords and all external cables.

To install the air baffle (two microprocessors installed), complete the following steps.

1. Carefully turn the server on its side so that it is lying flat, with the cover facing up.
   Attention

   Do not allow the server to fall over.
2. Unlock and remove the left-side cover (see Removing the left-side cover).
3. Align the positioning pins on the ends of the air baffle with the locating holes in the server chassis and fan cage assembly.
4. Slide the air baffle down into the server until the positioning pins fit into the locating holes; then, press down on the air baffle until the pinch tab clicks into place.
