SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE STARTING THE INSTALLATION.
-
Not suitable for children under 6 years. (contains small parts which could be swallowed).
-
Do not run any cooling components without ensuring that cooling liquid is flowing through the cooling system. Coolers operated without coolant can become very hot. Caution: Burn Hazard!
-
Coolers that have no coolant flowing through them can destroy the computer hardware. When switching on the hardware, always make sure that the pump
is working. -
Please note when tightening the connectors or fittings, no tools such as screwdrivers, pliers, or wrenches should be used. All plastic products or metal threaded connections, which are linked with plastic parts, are easily over-loaded with tools. Cracking or other damages incurred in this way, as well as damage from leaking coolant, are not covered under the warranty!
-
Use only connectors with a sealing o-ring. When using a sealing ring a firm tightening with the hand is enough. Your instruction manual will clearly refer to
the use of tools in exceptional cases. -
If you have not done so yet, please check your hardware and cooling system (tightness, pump function and fans). This will minimize time spent searching for possible problems. ALPHACOOL INTERNATIONAL GMBH accepts no liability on the warranty of the manufacturer of the electronic components. The assembly of the cooling system takes place at your own risk.
-
The screws should not be tightened too firmly. If you tighten the screws excessively, the knurled nuts can loosen and the cooler´s uniform pressure is no
longer guaranteed. -
Fasten the connections of your choice to the cooler. Do not use tools such as wrenches for fastening the connections. Connectors with 8mm long threads
may stop the flow. -
We recommend a tightness test before assembling/installing the cooler. The water pressure in the water cooling loop can be at a maximum of 0.8 bar. DO NOT use tools on the connectors.
-
Ensure that the cooler is touching all components to be cooled through thermal grease and thermal pads.
-
Only use distilled water or ALPHACOOL CAPE KELVIN CATCHER in your cooling circuit. Damage caused by unsuitable coolant is not covered by the warranty!
Specified normal operation
All ALPHACOOL INTERNATIONAL GMBH cooling components are constructed and
licensed for ALPHACOOL INTERNATIONAL GMBH computer construction
parts. The warranty expires in case of misuse.

PREPARATION CPU
-
Remove the protective film from the cooling plate.
-
Remove any remaining thermal paste from the CPU.
-
Apply a pea-sized blob of thermal paste to the center of the CPU.
-
Spread the paste using a spatula, or similar to an even, thin layer (< 0.5 mm layer thickness).
-
Remove the protective film from the adhesive strips of the included backplate. Please note the correct alignment of the backplate:

CONNECTING FANS & PUMP
-
Connect the fan cables with the included PWM adapter.
-
Connect the PWM adapter and the 3-pin connector of the pump to your mainboard.
INITIAL START-UP
If your Eisbaer AiO is unusually loud during initial operation, tipping the
entire PC case back and forth a little can help. The higher volume level of
the pump occurs due to air bubbles in the closed system. These bubbles form
during transport or due to movement during installation.
Double-check that the radiator is mounted above the water block. This setup
helps deaerate the system.
After around 12 hours of operation any air in the system should be eliminated
and the pump should run quietly as usual.
USING QUICK RELEASE CONNECTORS
The pre-installed quick-release fastener offers the possibility of expanding the Eisbaer loop quickly and easily. The connector is compatible with many other products from our range. Attention: 2 – 3 drops of water can escape when unscrewing the quick release mechanism – This is normal.
FILLING UP COOLANT
The Eisbaer All-in-One is prefilled and normally it is not necessary to top up
the coolant. If you want to expand your circuit, e.g. with a GPX Eiswolf
graphics card cooler, it is advisable to check the water level. If the pump
is running unsusually loud, liquid should be topped up urgently. We only
recommend clear coolants from our own production (CKC or Eiswasser Crystal –
no UV!) or pure distilled or osmosis filtered water.
A fillport on the cooler is provided for filling. We recommend using a funnel
or a filling bottle:
