II. A

LTERNATE FILLING PROCEDURE

The following filling procedure applies to situations where the reservoir must be or is already installed inside of the CD-Rom
bay. Please refer to

steps 1, and 2 in chapter I

for physical connections and installation in the CD-Rom drive Bay.

Step 1. Radiator inlet and outlet should always be oriented
upwards during the filling procedure. In the above picture, the
MCB-120 Radbox conveniently allows you to let the radiator fan
assembly hang from your workbench.

Step 2. Stuff a cloth or towel behind the MCRES-1000 to prevent
liquid from dripping over components in case of an accidental
spill, and then set the front of the PC on an object so that the
chassis will be at a 15 to 20° angle from horizontal.

Step 3. Fill-up the reservoir to the

appropriate level

(see step 3

chapter I, page 1). Proceed slowly and inspect level frequently
to avoid overflowing.

Step 4. Close the fill port with the provided fill-cap.


Step 5. Connect the pump 4-pin Molex connector to the power-
supply, and then lay down the PC flat on the workbench. You
must be able to start the PSU without it being connected to the
motherboard (

See Note 2

, chapter III, page 4).

What to expect:

when you start-up the power-supply, you will

hear a low and continuous hum indicating that the pump is
working, then a sudden gurgling as the mix of fluid and air start
rushing into the pump. Then the gurgling will gradually disappears
as all the air is being flushed out.

Action!

Start-up the PSU. Wait 5 to 10 seconds until you see the

fluid circulate, or hear it gurgling. If nothing happens, shutdown
and restart the pump once or twice, letting the pump run a
maximum of 5 to 10 seconds in between each shutdown. Once
the pump has primed and the liquid circulates, let the pump run
for another 5 minutes to allow all the air to be flushed out from the
circuit.

IF THERE IS NO FLUID CIRCULATION, DO NOT OPERATE
THE PUMP
, and refer to troubleshooting

note (1)

chapter III,

page 4 before you proceed any further.
