After successful installation, you can power on your system.

• Power On: Connect the AC power cord to the power supply and a wall outlet. Flip the main power switch on the power supply to the 'ON' position.
• ECO Mode: The power supply features an ECO mode switch. When 'ON', the fan will stop spinning unless the load is above approximately 50% of the rated capacity, ensuring silent operation at low loads. When 'OFF', the fan will spin continuously.

7. Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your power supply.

• Cleaning: Periodically clean the exterior of the power supply and the fan grille to prevent dust buildup, which can impede airflow and cooling. Use compressed air or a soft brush. Ensure the power supply is off and unplugged before cleaning.
• Fan Operation: The 120mm Fluid Dynamic Bearing fan is designed for durability and quiet operation. In ECO mode, the fan may not spin at low loads; this is normal.

8. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your power supply, consider the following:

• No Power: Ensure the AC power cord is securely connected to both the power supply and the wall outlet. Verify the main power switch on the power supply is in the 'ON' position. Check your wall outlet with another device.
• System Instability/Shutdowns: This power supply includes multiple protection features (OVP, OCP, OPP, SCP, UVP, OTP) to safeguard your components. If your system is unstable or shuts down unexpectedly, it could indicate an issue with power delivery or another component. Ensure all power connections are firm.
• Fan Not Spinning: If the ECO mode is enabled, the fan will not spin until the power supply reaches approximately 50% load. This is normal operation for quiet performance. If the fan does not spin under heavy load, contact support.
• Unusual Noises: If you hear unusual noises (e.g., coil whine, grinding), power down your system immediately and contact support.
