The fan tray is hot swappable. Follow these guidelines when you replace the fan tray
on an operating switch:
Ensure electrical safety.
Replace a fan tray only when the other fan tray is operating correctly.
To prevent dust from entering the chassis, keep the failed fan tray in position before
the replacement.
When you hot-swap a fan tray, the remaining fan tray automatically increases the
fan rotation speed and makes louder noise. Take protection measures such as
wearing an earmuff or earplug. In addition, make good preparation before hot
swapping a fan tray to minimize the operation time.
Long-time exposure to strong air flow might cause discomfort. To avoid this hazard,
do not stand close to the air outlet vents when the switch is operating. If you must be
next to the switch on the air outlet vent side for an extended period, avoid the air flow
or take other protective measures.

The fan tray draws ambient air into the chassis through the air vents in the MPU and LPU
panels and exhausts the air carrying heat through the air vents in the fan tray panel.

To install the fan tray in slot FAN1, orient the fan tray so that the LEDs are on the left
side of the front panel. To install the fan tray slot FAN2, orient the fan tray so that the
LEDs are on the right side of the front panel.
To prevent dust from entering the chassis, keep the filler panels or fan trays in position
if the switch is not in use.
To avoid damaging the fan tray, use both hands when installing or removing a fan tray.

Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably
grounded.

of the filler panel with one hand, use your thumb and forefinger of the other hand to hold
the filler panel through the two holes and pull out the filler panel along the guide rails.
