SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1. Carefully read the manual before beginning with the

installation process.

2. Keep the product away from the reach of children.

3. Check the component list and condition of the product

before installation. If there is any problem, contact the

shop where you have purchased the product to get a

replacement or refund.

4. EKWB is not responsible for any damages due to external

causes, including but not limited to, mproper use, problems

with electrical power, accidents, neglect, alteration, repair,

improper installation, and improper testing.

5. CPU, GPU and motherboard are subject to damage if the

product is incorrectly installed.

6. This product is CPU and GPU liquid cooling kit, comprising

of individual, original EKWB parts. Combining this liquid

cooling unit with parts other than EK Water Blocks products

may lead to warranty loss.

7. Do not use pure distilled water! For best results EK

recommends the use of EK-CryoFuel coolants!

8. The use of corrosion inhibiting coolants is always

recommended for any liquid cooling system. EKWB

recommends any of the EK-Cryofuel for worry-free usage.

9. Only G1/4 ﬁttings with a parallel thread should be used (1/4”

BSPP), maximum thread engagement is strictly 5.75mm!

10. 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.

11. The product warranty period is 24 months.

INSTALLATION TIPS FOR NOVICES

1. To lower the shipping cost, we have decided to enclose the coolant

concentrate only. Therefore, you need to provide 1 liter (1L) of

distilled water. You can ﬁnd it at every gas station or supermarket.

2. Never run this system on tap water and always use the

enclosed cooling concentrate in the right ratio.

3. Never use alcohol, alcohol derivatives, or alcohol-based

solvents in the system. Using alcohol might result in permanent

damage to water cooling KIT components, especially acrylic

parts of the system.

4. It is best practice to do a proper 24-hour leak test before using

your computer.

5. If you spot any leaks, turn off the power immediately.

6. Optimize tube length to prevent excessive bending and kinking

of the tubing.

7. Never let your pump run dry. If this is happening for a prolonged

period, you risk destroying the water pump’s bearing, ultimately

rendering the pump useless.

8. You are encouraged to periodically clean the radiator assembly as

it will collect dust over time. It’s best to be done with a soft wide-tip

brush and a vacuum cleaner. See chapter Cleaning Guide.
