advantages and features of the PowerZone power supply series in this comprehensive manual.
PowerZone is a completely new be quiet! power supply series and especially designed for Gamers. The 
expertise from our already established power supply series is the base for the developement of this 
new series.
Should you have any further question, please contact our customer service. See contact information 
in item Manufacturer’s details.
PC systems are continually becoming more and more powerful and require more electricity due to 
the use of high performance graphic cards and faster processors, especially on the +12V cables. Our 
PowerZone Series power supplies are ideal in that they have sufficient reserve capacity, even for the 
operation of PCI Express graphic cards in SLI or CrossFire arrays. 
Our PowerZone Series power supplies have an extremely high efficiency level of up to 88%.
2.  SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 
Please read and follow all the information contained in these instructions carefully prior 
to installation. The power supply is only guaranteed to function properly if the instructions 
are followed thus providing you with maximum satisfaction with this product.
Caution: Only use the supplied cable set. Using cables that were not included (e.g. cables of older 
power supply unit series) may lead to defects!
Never open the power supply case. The electronic components inside the case generate a high voltage 
that  is  dangerous  to  humans.  Even  after  disconnecting  the  power  supply  from  the  network,  some 
parts still have high voltages. For this reason, a power supply adapter should only be opened by an 
authorised technician. 
Opening the device voids your warranty.
 
∙ Never handle the power supply with wet or damp hands when in operation.
 
∙ Never insert objects into the power supply’s apertures/fans.
 
∙ Note that the power supply is designed for use indoors in conditions without high levels of moisture 
in the ambient air. Using the power supply outdoors will lead to serious damage. 
 
∙ Never work on the power supply while it is connected to the mains. In this case, always set the power 
switch to “0” and if necessary, disconnect the power plug. 
 
∙ In the event of a short circuit in the device, unplug the mains cable and do not use the device.
Make sure that your PC is not located directly next to a heating system or any other source of heat. 
Make sure that your computer case is sufficiently ventilated by means of additional fans; with today’s 
complex and powerful systems an ATX-compatible power supply is incapable of dissipating the heat 
produced in the PC case without additional support.
