1. Make sure that the power source’s output voltage and frequency are compatible with
the power input requirements of the water pump before installing(Input voltage and
frequency of the water pump are shown on the box and sink cover).
2. Do not place in dusty or humid conditions, under direct sunlight, or near a heat source
such as a room heater.
3. Do not drop or subject to excessive force.
4. CPU socket compatibility must be checked.
5. Familiarize yourself with this manual.
6. Do not mix any contaminant with the coolant when filling, for it may cause product failure.
7. Check for leaks on water block before the installation.
Installation Notes
1. Use a power strip with a power switch, and connect both PC and Reserator 1 V2 to
the power strip to allow simultaneous power ON/OFF switching.
2. Always turn on the water pump first before using the system.
3. If the coolant isn’t circulating or the pump is making a strange noise, turn the PC OFF
immediately.
4. Do not place any objects on the product.
5. Install on a flat surface with no vibration or slant, and do not tilt or lay horizontally.
6. Use distilled water for coolant, regularly check the amount of coolant, and replenish
as needed.
7. If a leak is found, turn off the system immediately and examine the problem before
using the system again.
8. If the system will not be used for an extended period of time, turn the Water Pump OFF.
9. When moving the system, separate the reserator from the PC case before moving.
10. Do not let any air bubbles form in the Water Block and tubes during operation.
11. Always check that the water pump is functioning properly.

RESERATOR 1 V2
※
The specifications of any product may change without prior notice to improve performance.
The Reserator 1 V2 incorporates Zalman’s HCET(High Capacity Extrusion Technique)
technology, high efficiency cooling technology, and optimal heat dissipation design for
exceptional cooling performance even through natural convection cooling .
The Reserator 1 V2 is a fanless water cooling system that unites the functions of a
reservoir, radiator, and water pump into one system for easy operation. It is anodized
and comes with a custom coolant to prevent corrosion. The new CPU Water Block
(ZM-WB4 Gold), VGA Water Block(ZM-GWB3), and the optional Northbridge Water
Block(ZM-NWB1) and VGA RAM Water Block (ZM-RWB1) enable the setup of a
complete Water Cooling System with excellent performance.

1. 1 Reserator (Reservoir + Radiator + Water Pump)
“Reserator” is a compound word derived from ‘Reservoir’ and
‘Radiator’ - it acts as a reservoir while radiating heat. This product
works well with natural convection and integrates a water pump
inside for convenience.
1. 2 CPU Water Block (ZM-WB4 Gold)
The CPU Water Block incorporates a pure copper base for excellent
heat transfer, and has gold plating to prevent corrosion. It supports
Pentium 4 Socket 775/478 CPU and AMD Socket 754/939/940 CPU,
and is designed to be light weight and easy to install.
1. 3 VGA Water Block (ZM-GWB3)
The VGA Water Block incorporates a light weight pure aluminum base
for high cooling performance, and is anodized and coated to prevent
corrosion. It also incorporates revolving fittings that provide freedom in
direction when connecting them with the tubes, which further allows
simple installation.
1. 4 Northbridge Water Block (ZM-NWB1, Optional)
This anodized, pure aluminum block is built for high performance cooling, and is
designed for compatibility with a wide variety of northbridge chipsets.
1. 5 VGA RAM Water Block (ZM-RWB1, Optional)
This anodized, pure aluminum RAM Water Block is built for high
performance cooling, and is compatible with Geforce 7800/7900 and ATI
X1800/X1900 in need of VGA RAM cooling. It provides easy installation.
1. 6 Anti-Corrosion Coolant (ZM-G200)
This coolant contains a high quality anti-corrosion agent for various
materials including copper, aluminum, and plastic, that prevents
corrosion for long term operation.
1. 7 Flow Indicator
This component is connected in-line with the circulation tube for
checking the circulation of the coolant. When the coolant is actively
circulating, the cap inside the flow indicator shakes rapidly, providing
easy indication of the circulation status.
1. 8 Quick Coupling
The Fittings incorporate valves that prevent leaks when disconnecting
the PVC Tubes allowing quick, convenient separation and reassembly of
the Reserator for transport and coolant replacement.
