Installing Your Computer in an Enclosure

Installing your computer in an enclosure can restrict the airflow and impact
your computer's performance, possibly causing it to overheat. Follow the
guidelines below when installing your computer in an enclosure:
NOTICE:
The operating temperature specifications indicated in this manual
reflects the maximum ambient operating temperature. The room ambient
temperature needs to be a consideration when installing your computer in an
enclosure. For example, if the ambient room temperature is at 25°C (77°F),
depending on your computer's specifications, you only have 5° to 10°C (9° to 18°F)
temperature margin before you reach your computer's maximum operating
temperature. For details about your computer's specifications, see the online User's
Guide.
• Leave a 10.2 cm (4 in) minimum clearance on all vented sides of the
computer to permit the airflow required for proper ventilation.
• If your enclosure has doors, they need to be of a type that allows at least
30 percent airflow through the enclosure (front and back).
