7.2. General Cleaning

Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the exterior surfaces of the chassis. For tempered glass panels, use a glass cleaner and a microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.

8. Troubleshooting

• System not powering on: Ensure all power cables (24-pin ATX, 8-pin CPU, GPU, etc.) are securely connected to the motherboard and components. Verify the PSU switch is in the 'ON' position. Check front panel power button connections to the motherboard.
• Fans not spinning or RGB not working: Confirm that the fan power cables are correctly connected to the motherboard or fan controller. Ensure the RGB control switch is functioning. If individual fans are not working, check their specific connections.
• Overheating issues: Ensure all fans are spinning correctly and oriented for optimal airflow (e.g., bottom fans as intake, top/rear as exhaust). Clean dust filters regularly. Verify CPU cooler and GPU cooler are properly installed.
• Difficulty with cable management: Due to the compact nature of the chassis, careful planning is required. Utilize all available tie-down points and route cables behind the motherboard tray where possible.
• Front panel ports not working: Check that the front panel header cables (USB 3.0, USB 2.0, Audio) are correctly connected to the corresponding pins on your motherboard.
