CoolingStation Monoblock for PS5

Please note the installation of the product is intended to be undertaken
by an adequately trained and experienced person. You are installing the
product at your own risk. If you are not properly trained or experienced
or feel unsure about the installation procedure, please refrain from
installing the product yourself and contact our tech support for
assistance. We disclaim our liability for any damages to the product as
well as incidental, consequential, or indirect damages incurred due to
improper or inappropriate installation.
Safety precautions
Carefully read the manual before beginning with the
installation process.
The EK Fittings require only a small amount of force to screw
them firmly in place since the liquid seal is ensured by the
rubber O-ring gaskets.
The use of corrosion-inhibiting coolants is always
recommended for liquid cooling systems and mandatory for
nickel-plated water blocks!
Do not use pure distilled water!
For best results, EK recommends the use of EK-CryoFuel
coolants! To reach optimal performance, make sure to
thoroughly bleed the air out of your water block!
The product warranty period is 24 months.
We disclaim our liability for any damages to the Sony PS5
as well as incidental, consequential, or indirect damages
incurred due to improper or inappropriate installation.
Dismantling the PS5 voids its Sony warranty.
