Once the power supply is installed and all components are connected:

1. קאָננעקט AC מאַכט: Plug the AC power cord into the power supply's inlet and then into a wall outlet.
2. Power On the PSU: Locate the main power switch on the rear of the power supply and flip it to the 'ON' (I) position.

iCOOL Mode

The ASRock STEEL LEGEND 1000W features an iCOOL MODE switch on the rear panel. This mode allows the fan speed to automatically adjust based on the power supply's temperature and load. When activated, the fan operates almost silently at low loads and increases speed for effective cooling under high loads. To enable or disable iCOOL MODE, toggle the switch next to the main power switch (refer to Figure 5.1).

6. וישאַלט

• רייניקונג: Periodically clean the exterior of the power supply and its fan grille to prevent dust buildup. Use a soft, dry cloth or compressed air. Ensure the power supply is turned off and unplugged before cleaning.
• לופט לויפן: Ensure that the power supply's intake and exhaust vents are not obstructed. Good airflow is crucial for efficient cooling and longevity.
• דו זאלסט נישט דיסאַסעמבאַל: Never attempt to open the power supply unit. High voltages are present inside, even when unplugged, and doing so will void your warranty.

7. טראָובלעשאָאָטינג

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

• קיין מאַכט:
  • קאָנטראָלירט צי דער AC מאַכט שנור איז זיכער אַרייַנגעשטעקט אין ביידע די מאַכט צושטעל און די וואַנט אַוטלעט.
  • Ensure the main power switch on the PSU's rear panel is in the 'ON' (I) position.
  • באַשטעטיקן אַז די וואַנט אַוטלעט אַרבעט דורך אַרײַנשטעקן אַן אַנדער דעוויס.
  • Check all modular cable connections to ensure they are firmly seated in both the PSU and the components.
• סיסטעם שליסט זיך אומגעריכט אויס:
  • The power supply's built-in protection mechanisms (OCP, OVP, OTP, OPP, UVP, SCP) may have activated due to an overload, overvoltage, overheating, or short circuit.
  • Ensure your system's power consumption does not exceed the PSU's capacity.
  • Check for proper ventilation around the PSU and inside the case to prevent overheating.
  • Disconnect non-essential peripherals to see if the issue persists.
• Fan Not Spinning (iCOOL Mode): If iCOOL Mode is enabled, the fan may not spin at low loads to maintain silent operation. This is normal. The fan will activate as the load and temperature increase. If the fan never spins even under heavy load, ensure iCOOL Mode is enabled or try disabling it to force the fan on.

If problems persist after performing these checks, contact ASRock customer support or your retailer for assistance.
