This is called a fan test and it CAN mess your ps3 up DONT do it

Is this a inbuilt feature designed by Sony?

This guy is right, it messed up my brothers' PHAT PS3 very soon after! It still applies to the slim though, same procedure, same purpose.

Yes, its' main purpose wasn't for cleaning the system. I believe it was for testing the fan, hence why it's called a "fan test".

Well ok, guess I will stick to buying a can of air...

Even that might mess up your PS3. It depends where you aim it, and sometimes will leave a minor damage that still will matter lol. Just saying, be very careful. You can try vacuuming it with a tube from the vacuum cleaners. I used to do that with my old phat PS3, made it look very new. It also ran smooth for a very long time.

Ooo, never thought of a vacuum. Hmm, I'll do that instead, will save lots of money.

Yup, it works if you have that tube extension thing. Just let it suck the dust from the vents for a few seconds and you're good to go I'll stop quoting you now, good luck on cleaning your PS3!

Thank you, and just noticed your posts is almost equal to your rep.. going to separate them a bit because you helped me... evil right?

(EDIT.. Given out too much rep in a short amount of time... have to wait.. when I can then I will be evil and give you rep for your help).

Lol good one ^ (can't quote, using PS3 now ) But thanks, I'm glad that I'm of help :y:
