Because the Cooling system is fully enclosed evaporation is very minimal,
Please make a habit of checking the Level of Fluid as indicated by the Green Level/Power On indicator
The Fluid Level is indicated on the Front Panel as below

Ensure the ProtectItSafe is sitting level and is located with the base down
The Cooling System cools the outside of the fully sealed internal enclosure that encloses the Hard Drive
Fan Cooling
ProtectItSafe is fitted with 2 fans, one is for the cooling system the other is to give air flow over the Power Supply Adapters, these fans are very quiet running
Top Up the Reservoir
Top up with an approved Coolant Fluid such as Swiftech HydrX UV Reactive Coolant
Switch the ProtectItSafe off and disconnect the Power Supply
Pull the Draw with Water Cooler out until cables are tight, this will clear the draw of the Main Enclosure, do not force it once the cables are holding it.
Tilt the draw
so that the right hand side is higher than the left this will have the filler plug on top of the Reservoir at the higher side.
Use one large screw driver or two smaller ones as illustrated
Unscrew the Filler Plug, do not burr the edges
Top up as required
Screw Cap back into place, make sure the thread is not crossed, the cap needs to be done up tightly, a small amount of fluid will appear around cap, soak up with tissue.
Restart only when the Draw is back in correct position
Check the Cap for leakage after running for 30 minutes, tighten if necessary.
