Let the pump run for multiple hours. Tilting the system
can help to release air bubbles.
Thanks to the 42mm pitch mounting holes you can install the
reservoir on many pump brackets such as the“Universal
Pump Bracket” from Phanteks. It is included with many Phanteks
cases and available separately.
Adjust the vertical position of the bracket to nd the perfect
position in your system. Both the bracket and the reservoir has
multiple mounting holes to move the position up and down.
