EK Water Blocks assumes no liability whatsoever, expressed or implied, for the use of these products, nor their installation. The following instructions are subject to change without notice.

Before installation of this product please read the important notice, disclosure, and warranty conditions printed on the back of the box.

Before you start using this product, please follow these basic guidelines:
Please carefully read the manual before beginning the installation process!
The EK Fittings require only a small amount of force to screw them firmly in place since the liquid seal is ensured by the rubber O-ring gaskets.
The use of corrosion-inhibiting coolants is always recommended for liquid cooling systems and mandatory for nickel-plated water blocks!
Do not use pure distilled water! For best results, EK recommends the use of EK-CryoFuel coolants!
Make sure to thoroughly bleed air out of your water block, or you will not achieve optimal performance!

INSTALLING AND ATTACHING THE WATER BLOCK

STEP 1
Install your EK-Quantum Velocity2 1700 water block in the illustrated orientation and place the motherboard on a secure flat surface. Using the enclosed EK-Loop Multi Key, install two (2) Extenders M12F and two (2) torque push-in fixation fittings to the pre-installed VRM block and CPU block (as shown in the image).
Do not use excessive force while tightening the fittings.

For this step, you will need:

STEP 2
Unscrew the one (1) M4 x 18 DIN7991 screw using the enclosed 2.5mm Allen key and remove it from the block.
Save the screw for later step.

With the EK-Quantum Momentum2 VRM Bridge ROG Maximus Z690 Formula D-RGB water block, it is mandatory to use the bottom port as the INLET. Mixing the ports may result in poor thermal performance of the water block.
Tighten the fittings in a clockwise direction until the gasket underneath is compressed. The installation of the water block is now complete.
