10. Notes on Usage

1)Checking CPU Compatibility & Using FAN MATE 1

Read “Compatible CPU Types” on page 4 to confirm that your CPU is compatible before using the CPU cooler. The speed control knob on FAN MATE 1 can be turned to set the fan speed. When it is turned counter-clockwise, the fan operates in Silent Mode at its minimum speed.

NOTE) FAN MATE 1 has been specifically designed to be used with the fan included in this product. Zalman Tech. Co., Ltd. is not responsible for any damage caused to systems or CPUs by using FAN MATE 1 with other types of fans.

2) Cautions During Booting

When booting the computer, it may automatically power down after an alarm sound by a system monitoring program to indicate that the the CPU fan is rotating slowly. If this happens, turn the speed control knob fully clockwise to increase the fan speed. Then set ‘CPU Fan Detected’ to ‘Disabled’ in the BIOS settings, or set the slowest rotational speed of the CPU fan in the system monitoring program to less than or equal to 1300 RPM. Now the fan can be set back to the silent mode by turning the knob counter clockwise.

NOTE) Some motherboards do not boot if the rotational speed of the CPU fan below a certain number of RPM. If the BIOS settings are updated, Silent Mode can be used. For more information on updating your BIOS, please refer to your motherboard manufacturer's web site. Disabling of CPU fan speed detection in BIOS settings does not effect computer performance.

3)Creating a Complete Noiseless System

Use the following Zalman products to achieve stable and silent operation of your computer : Noiseless Power Supply, CNPS series CPU Cooler, Fanless Coolers for Northbridge Chipset & Video Card, and Noiseless Fan.
