Overview
- incorrect antifreeze mixture,
- high ambient temperature,
- malfunctioning water cooling fan, or
- issues with the temperature sensor.

Troubleshooting procedure
#1 Control ambient temperature
- Use air conditioning to regulate room temperature.
- Position fans to direct airflow toward the back of the machine to enhance heat dissipation and maintain optimal cooling performance.
#2 Check water cooling fans and vents
Observe fan operation
- Confirm that the three water cooling fans at the bottom of the machine are functioning correctly.
Ensure Proper Vent Clearance
- Ensure the ventilation holes at the back of the machine are not blocked or obstructed by a wall or other object, which can impede airflow.

#3 Check airflow with paper test

- The paper should be drawn upwards when placed near the water cooling fans.
- The paper should be blown away when placed near the ventilation holes at the back.
#4 Clean water cooling radiator or water cooling fans

#5 Adjust antifreeze mixture

💡 Note: If the ambient temperature consistently remains above 0°C, consider using 100% purified water or distilled water as the coolant for improved heat dissipation. Ensure that the water is free from impurities to prevent damage to the machine or disruptions to the cooling system.
