Configuración e instalación
Follow these steps carefully to install your AeroCool Mirage L240 ARGB Liquid Cooler.
1. Prepara o teu sistema
- Power off your computer and unplug it from the wall outlet.
- Abre a carcasa do teu PC e retira calquera refrixerador de CPU existente.
- Clean the CPU surface thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol to remove old thermal paste.
2. Instalar o radiador e os ventiladores
- Attach the two 120mm ARGB fans to the radiator using the long fan screws provided. Ensure the fan airflow direction is as desired (typically exhaust out of the case or intake into the case).
- Mount the radiator assembly to an available 240mm fan mount location in your PC case (e.g., top, front, or rear). Use the shorter radiator screws to secure it.

3. Install CPU Pump/Cold Plate
- Select the appropriate mounting brackets for your CPU socket (Intel or AMD) from the hardware kit. Attach them to the pump unit.
- If thermal paste is not pre-applied, apply a small pea-sized amount to the center of your CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS).
- Coloque con coidado o conxunto da bomba/placa fría na CPU, aliñando os orificios de montaxe.
- Secure the pump to the motherboard using the provided thumb screws or nuts, tightening them in a diagonal pattern until snug. Do not overtighten.

4. Conecte os cables
- Connect the pump's 3-pin power cable to the "CPU_FAN" or "AIO_PUMP" header on your motherboard.
- Connect each fan's 4-pin PWM cable to available fan headers on your motherboard (e.g., "SYS_FAN").
- Connect the ARGB cables from the fans and pump to your motherboard's 3-pin 5V ARGB header or to the included ARGB controller. Ensure correct polarity to avoid damage.
- Organize cables for good airflow and aesthetics.
Instrucións de funcionamento
Once installed, the AeroCool Mirage L240 ARGB Liquid Cooler operates automatically based on your motherboard's fan control settings. The pump runs continuously to circulate coolant, and fan speeds adjust according to CPU temperature.
Control de iluminación ARGB
- Sincronización da placa base: If connected to a compatible motherboard ARGB header, you can control the lighting effects using your motherboard's RGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync).
- Controlador ARGB: If using the included ARGB controller (if applicable), refer to its specific instructions for changing lighting modes, colors, and brightness.
Mantemento
Un mantemento regular axuda a garantir a lonxevidade e o rendemento óptimo do seu refrixerador líquido.
- Limpeza do po: Periodically (every 3-6 months, or more often in dusty environments) power off your PC and use compressed air to clean dust from the radiator fins and fan blades. This prevents airflow restriction and maintains cooling efficiency.
- Inspección visual: Check the tubing and connections for any signs of leaks or damage. While rare, early detection can prevent issues.
- Funcionamento do ventilador: Ensure all fans are spinning freely and quietly. Replace any fans that become noisy or stop working.
