Installing The Cooling Shroud
CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform
troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the online or
telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your

NOTE: For proper seating of the cooling shroud in the chassis, ensure that the cables inside the system are routed
through the cable routing latch.
1. Align the cooling shroud with the numbered fan bays as a guide.
2. Lower the cooling shroud into the chassis so that the four tabs on the cooling shroud rest on the cooling fan
bracket.
