1. INTRODUCTION
We are delighted that you have chosen to use a be quiet! power supply from our SFX Power 2 /
TFX Power 2 series in your PC. Please read and follow all the information contained in these instructions
carefully prior to installation. Should you have any further question, please contact our customer
service. See contact information in item Manufacturer’s details.
2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The power supply is only guaranteed to function properly if the instructions are
followed.
Never open the power supply case. The electronic components inside the case generate a high voltage
that is dangerous to humans. Even after disconnecting the power supply from the network, some parts
still have high voltages. For this reason, a power supply adapter should only be opened by an authorised
technician�
Opening the device voids your warranty.
∙
Never handle the power supply with wet or damp hands when in operation.
∙
Never insert objects into the power supply’s apertures/fans.
∙
Note that the power supply is designed for use indoors in conditions without high levels of moisture
in the ambient air. Using the power supply outdoors will lead to serious damage.
∙
Never work on the power supply while it is connected to the mains. In this case, always set the power
switch to "0" (only for SFX Power 2) and / or disconnect the power plug.
∙
In the event of a short circuit in the device, unplug the mains cable and do not use the device.
Make sure that your PC is not located directly next to a heating system or any other source of heat.
Make sure that your computer case is sufficiently ventilated by means of additional fans; with today’s
complex and powerful systems a power supply is incapable of dissipating the heat produced in the PC
case without additional support.
If you want to clean your power supply, disconnect it completely from the mains and never use a damp
cloth or cleaning agent. Clean the power supply from the outside using a dry cloth.
Before using the power supply, allow it to warm up to room temperature for one hour to prevent
condensation accumulating in the power supply.
