General Safety Precautions

In order to ensure your safety and the safety of you notebook, we ask 
that your carefully follow these safety precautions.

 CAUTION: Using your notebook for long periods of time, with 

the base resting directly on exposed skin, can cause injury, 
burns or discomfort from the heat buildup that is generated from 
the base of your portable computer. 

●  After removing the notebook from the box, please ensure that all 

  packaging materials are kept out of the reach of small children as 
  they can cause a potential choking hazard. The packaging 
  materials should be safely stored away in the event that it may be 

used again for safe transportation of the notebook. 

●  Ensure that the AC Adapter and power cable are placed in a safe 

  area where it cannot be tripped over or stepped on. The AC 
  Adapter should be situated in a well ventilated area and should 
  have nothing resting on or covering it. 

●  Before turning on the notebook, ensure that it is placed on a level 

surface with at least 10 cm of clearance around the air vents, which 
will aid in proper cooling. 

●  Do not obstruct the air vents of the notebook and do not insert any 

foreign objects into this space. Doing this may cause a short circuit or 

may cause the CPU fan to malfunction, resulting in the risk of a fire 

or electric shock. This may eventually render permanent damage to 
the notebook.

●  Do not press or touch the display panel.  
●  Only use the AC Adapter that is provided with the notebook or 

that which is recommended by the manufacturer. Using non-

recommended or non-approved parts may cause damage or increase 

the risk of a fire or explosion. In the event that another AC Adapter is 

required, advice should be sought from a GIGABYTE service agent, 
in order to make sure that the correct part is recommended. 

●  Please follow the battery installation guidelines. Incorrect 
   installation of batteries may increase the risk of a fire or explosion.
●  Only replace old batteries with the same or an alternative 

  compatible battery that is recommended by GIGABYTE or an 
  authorized GIGABYTE Service Centre. 

●  Before connecting the notebook to the power outlet, make sure 

  that the voltage rating of the AC Adapter is compatible with the 

  power specification in the country where you are located. A 
  detailed list of the power specification for different countries can 

  be found on page 39. 

●  When using an extension cord, please make sure that the total 

  sum of ampere ratings for all connected devices does not exceed 
  the total ampere capacity for the circuit. 

●  Before removing the battery from the notebook, make sure firstly 

  that the notebook is switched off and secondly that the AC 
  Adapter is disconnected from the electrical wall socket. Once this 
  is done, it would be safe to remove the battery. 

Do not carry the notebook battery, loose, in your handbag, 
backpack or pocket where loose metal objects (money, keys, 
chains, pens, etc) may be present. The metal objects can short 
circuit the terminals of the battery resulting in overheating 

that could cause a fire hazard. In the event that you need to 

transport the battery separately from the notebook, please place 
it inside an anti-static bag.
