A attachment structure enabling more efficient work in performing maintenance of a fan of a fan unit and a more stable electrical connection between a main body of an electrical equipment and a fan unit. A attachment structure configured to detachably attach a fan unit including a fan and a casing housing the fan to/from a main body of an electrical equipment includes a guide mechanism configured to guide a slide motion of sliding the casing in one direction relative to the main body to dispose the casing at a mounting position, and a retaining mechanism configured to restrict movement of the casing relative to the main body in a direction opposite the one direction when the casing is disposed at the mounting position by the slide motion.

If a fan motor in a stopped state remains stopped even when it is powered on, restart processing of the fan motor is carried out by rotating the fan motor forward and backward. If the fan motor rotates as a result of the restart processing, an indication to prompt replacement of it is displayed. If the fan motor remains stopped without rotating, in contrast, it is determined to be defective, and an electronic apparatus is stopped.
