- 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.
Warranty
- Data, designs, illustrations, technical data, weight, measurement and specifications, contained in folders, catalogues, circulars, announcements or price lists, have a purely informative character. We do not undertake warranty for the correctness of these data. As to the kind and the range of delivery, the data contained in the order and confirmation of order alone are decisive.
- If there is a lack of warrantor, you are entitled, on the basis of the legal regulations to require subsequent delivery, to withdraw from the contract or reduce the purchase price. If you are a consumer, the limitation period of warranty claims for the supplied commodity amounts to two years starting from receipt of goods ( § 13 BGB ).

- The warranty claim is valid only in combination with the original invoice, the sales slip or an ALPHACOOL confirmation on warranty claim.
- It is ALPHACOOL INTERNATIONAL GMBHs own discretionary authority to replace or repair the defective product or defective component. The replaced product or component changes into property of ALPHACOOL INTERNATIONAL GMBH.
- All warranty claims are accomplished by ALPHACOOL INTERNATIONAL GMBH or its authorized dealers. If the repair is carried out by a non-authorized or assigned person, ALPHACOOL INTERNATIONAL GMBH does not take over either costs or liability, unless the repair has been previously agreed upon with ALPHACOOL INTERNATIONAL GMBH.
- All costs resulting from refitting of the products are not taken over by ALPHACOOL INTERNATIONAL GMBH.
- ALPHACOOL INTERNATIONAL GMBHs warranty excludes the following points:
7.1. Regular controls maintenance and repair or the replacement of parts subject to regular wear and tear.
7.2. Improper manipulation or defects caused by incorrect installation.
7.3. Damages caused by storm, water, fire, overvoltage, acts of God, war, incorrect connection to the net, insufficient or incorrect ventilation or other reasons over which ALPHACOOL INTERNATIONAL GMBH has no influence.
7.4. Damages resulting from transportation or improper packaging.
- Consumer's rights are valid in the respective country; demands made to the salesman, as explained and laid down in the sales contract, will not be covered by this warranty. ALPHACOOL INTERNATIONAL GMBH, Its Branch Office and Distributors, are not responsible for direct or indirect damage or losses, as far as the
compelling legal regulations do not oppose it.
- ALPHACOOL INTERNATIONAL GMBH does not take over the warranty of the manufacturer of the electronic construction units and components. The assembly of the cooler takes place at your own risk.

HORIZONTAL MOUNTING
Mount the Eisbaer Extreme ensuring that the fans point upwards. This is important to ensure that the integrated pump is not damaged.
Choose the appropriate M3 screws (5 mm or 25 mm length), depending on your PC case. The additional mounting holes offer even more flexibility for alignment in the case.

Make sure that the reservoir is at the bottom of the case as seen in the picture (with the window at the bottom). This will ensure the pump does not get damaged.
PREPARING THE CPU

If you have a cooler installed, remove it, then:
- Remove any remaining thermal paste from the CPU.
- Use a lint free cloth or other material to help. Dried on, stubborn paste can be removed with alcohol.
- Apply a pea-sized blob of thermal paste to the center of the CPU.
- Spread the paste using a spatular, or similar to an even, thin layer (< 0.5 mm layer thickness).
PREPARING THE CPU - COOLER
- Remove the protective film from the cooling plate.

The Eisbaer Extreme 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 level. If the pump is running unusually 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.

Use a funnel or fill bottle and fill up the reservoir as much as possible. Use the viewing window and ensure that it is as full as possible.Use a funnel or fill bottle and fill up the reservoir as much as possible. Use the viewing window and ensure that it is as full as possible.
USING QUICK RELEASE CONNECTORS
The pre-installed quick-release fastener offers the possibility of expanding the Eisbaer Extreme loop quickly and easily. The connectors are "Eisbaer Ready" and therefore 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.

EXPANDING LOOP USING THE GPX EISWOLF
I. Switch off the PC
2. Insert new component
3. Integrating components into the circuit
→ Make sure that the outlet of one component is connected to the inlet of the next component as shown in the image below.
→ Note: When expanding the circuit with components without quick-release fasteners, you must drain all the coolant first.
4. Top up the coolant
→ You must remove the air from the loop. To do this rock the PC case slightly back and forth gently. Repeat this until no more fluid will fit into the loop and all air bubbles have dissapeared.
