3. Pull out all of the air filters.
4. Use a cleaner to remove dust from the air filters. Attach a brush to the tip of the
cleaner, and clean both sides of the filters.
5. Restore each air filter to its original location and orientation, which means the
knob is on the side closest to you and the arrow on the label points up (the
latticework faces upward).
6. When this restoring work is completed for all the air filters, turn the fixing
brackets of the air filters until they face upward, and then tighten the screws
firmly with the Phillips screwdriver. Finally, close the front and rear doors of
the SPARC Enterprise server.
