STEP 3
Please check if you have plugged in the EK-ATX Bridging Plug
and EK-Cable Pump Testing Adapter correctly. Refer to the
chapter
Recommended Filling and Leak-Testing Procedure.
Turn the power supply on for a brief moment to check if only the
pump is running.
STEP 4
When you turn on the power supply, the coolant should be pushed
from the reservoir toward other water cooling components. Therefore,
you have to fill the coolant continuously while the pump is running.
Alternatively, you can cycle the power supply by turning it ON
and OFF every few seconds to speed up the air bleeding process.
When the coolant level becomes steady, fill the reservoir until the
coolant level is about 2cm below the edge. Screw the reservoir top
cover back in a clockwise direction.
STEP 5
Tilt your PC chassis in different directions to remove any air that
might have remained trapped inside the radiator. You may need to
add more coolant afterward.
STEP 6
24 HOUR LEAK TEST
It is best practice to run your pump for at least 24 hours to
ensure your system is leak-free. Once the 24-hour leak test
is completed without signs of leaking fluid, you are free to
finish your build.
You will not need the ATX Bridging Plug cable anymore. Connect
all the necessary cables to the motherboard, graphics card, and
expansion drives.
