The computer uses an internal fan to create airflow through the vents, which prevents the computer

from overheating.

CAUTION:

Do not block, push objects into, or allow dust to accumulate in the air vents. Do not store your Dell

computer in a low-airflow environment, such as a closed briefcase, while it is running. Restricting the airflow
can damage the computer or cause a fire.The computer turns on the fan when the computer gets hot. Fan noise is
normal and does not indicate a problem with the fan or the computer.
