EnglishT1000 SERIES USER’S MANUAL11Chapter 2 Battery
English122.1 Battery PackYour T1000/T1005 is equipped with a high-energy rechargeable Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery pack. Battery life will vary depending on the product configuration, product model, applications loaded on the product, power management settings of the product, and the product features used by the customer. As with all batteries, the maximum capacity of this battery will decrease with time and usage.2.2 Recharging The Battery PackYour T1000/T1005 supports both on-line and off-line recharge. Follow the procedure below to recharge battery: Make sure the battery pack is installed in the T1000/T1005. Connect the AC adapter to the T1000/T1005 and to an electrical outlet. When a battery pack is being recharged, its battery LED (refer to 1.6 Status Indicators) should be lit.2.3 Questions And Answers I can feel a mild heat next to the battery pack. Is it normal? The battery will generate heat during recharging and discharging. There is a protection circuit inside the T1000/T1005 to prevent overheating. User needs not to worry. My battery operation time is not as long as it should be. Why? The battery is heat sensitive and can only be charged to its maximum if the battery and its environmental temperature remain within 15-25°C (59-77°F). The more the temperature deviates from this range during recharging, the less chance there is for the battery to be fully charged. In order to recharge the pack to its full capacity, users are requested to cool down the unit by unplugging the AC Adapter. Wait until it is cooled down. Then plug in the AC Adapter to start recharging again. I did not use my spare battery for a few days. Even though it was fully recharged, there wasn’t as much power left as a newly charged one. Why? The batteries will self-discharge when they are not being recharged. To make sure a battery pack is fully charged, recharge before use. Always keep the battery inside the T1000/T1005 and have the AC adapter connected whenever possible.
EnglishT1000 SERIES USER’S MANUAL13 I did not use my spare battery for months. I have problem in recharging it. If you happen to leave your battery pack to go through an extended period of self-discharge, say more than three months, the battery voltage level will become too low and needs to be Pre-Charged (to bring the battery voltage level high enough) before it automatically (for Li-Ion only) resumes its normal Fast Charge.2.4 Power ConsumptionSelect Power Options in the Control Panel or Power Mode in Smart Manager (3.1 GIGABYTE Smart Manager Functions) to adjust Power Consumption.2.5 Removing the Battery PackThis battery pack can easily be removed and replaced. Make sure that the computer is properly shutdown before changing the battery pack. If you would like to change the battery pack while power is on, make sure this battery pack is not the only electrical source to the system unit. Follow the steps below to remove the battery pack.12 Make sure the system is properly shutdown. Flip the system upside down as shown. Push the battery lock to the unlock position as shown by #1. Remove the battery pack as shown by #2.To insert the battery pack, reverse the steps above.
English142.6 Battery Capacity InspectionWhen system is turn off, press the function key (Please refer to 1.2) to inspect the battery capacity.The LED indicators will show the battery capacity status.

EnglishT1000 SERIES USER’S MANUAL234.2 Q&A My computer switches to hibernation mode much too quickly, and I have to constantly hit a key or move the mouse to bring back the screen. What can I do? This is part of Windows Power Management. Access Power Management by clicking on Start / Control Panel / Performance and Maintenance / Power Options, and change the time next to the “Turn off monitor” option to the time you want. You have the choice of either adjusting time for the power supply or for the battery. I’ve heard that cleaning and rearranging les on the hard drive will improve program’s launch speed, how do I do that? Good disk maintenances can improve program launch speed. This normally includes deleting unnecessary files, and defragmenting hard disk so that files can be more efficiently grouped. Windows contains maintenance utilities for these tasks; run Disk Cleanup to remove unnecessary files, and Disk Defragmenter to defragment file blocks. For more information about these utilities, please refer to your Windows documentation. What kind of external microphone can I use with my notebook computer? You will need to use a self-amplifying microphone. There are echoes coming from my speakers. What can I do? Double click on the Speaker icon on the task bar. Then, under Microphone Balance, check the Mute box. Because of a software problem, I was unable to shut the computer down from Windows, I pressed the power button to power off the computer, but it didn’t work. How can I force a power off? Make sure you press the power button for at least 4 seconds. Normally, this will force the computer to shut off. Why can’t I charge the battery of my portable computer after it was out of use for some time? After your portable computer has not been used for a long time (say, more than a month), the battery will enter into low voltage protection mode. Under this circumstance, restoring to normal voltage will require the battery to be slowly charged for several hours. Once the battery has been fully charged, your computer will resume to normal operation.
English24 My computer says: “CMOS Battery Low”, what should I do? If your computer is without power (i.e. unplug the computer power source from the power outlet and remove the battery pack from it) for over 45 days, you would lose the information stored in CMOS. Please follow the steps below to reconfigure your CMOS settings:1. Press F2 to enter into the BIOS setup utility.2. Select “Load Optional Defaults?”. When you see the following prompt, choose <OK> and then press <Enter>.3. Select “Save Changes and Exit”, select <OK> and press <Enter> to restart your computer. How to unplug or eject devices1. In the notication area next to your task bar, double-click the Safe Removal icon. Safe Removal displays a list of Plug and Play devices that support safe removal and that are currently attached to the system. If you do not see the Safe Removal icon, your device does not support safe removal, and you cannot unplug or eject your device using Safe Removal.2. In Safely Remove Hardware, in the list of devices, select the device that you want to unplug or eject, and then click Stop. This tells the system that you will be unplugging or ejecting the device.3. In Stop a Hardware device, click OK. A notication appears stating that it is now safe to unplug or eject the device.Caution• Unplugging or ejecting a device that supports safe removal without first using the Safe Removal application to warn the system can cause data to be lost or your system to become unstable. For example, if you use Safe Removal, however, you can warn the system before you unplug or eject a device, preventing possible loss of data.Note• For removable storage devices that can safely be removed while the system is on, the system disables write caching by default. It does this so the devices can be removed without loss of data. When write caching is disabled, however, the system will likely experience slower performance, so be sure to enable write caching when you have nished removing the device. Does T1000/T1005 provide a hardware switch or function button to enable/disable the Bluetooth function? T1000/T1005 provides a combined function button to enable/disable the 3G (Fn+F10) and Bluetooth (Fn+F11) functions. (3G is optional)
EnglishT1000 SERIES USER’S MANUAL25 What are the considerations for the use of the touch control screen? In accordance with the principle of panel structure, the surroundings of the touch control panel are highly sensitive. Hence, drawing lines along the surroundings of the chassis is strictly prohibited as this may damage the Pet/film due to extreme pressure or cause the internal liners/pads on the edges of the outer shell to displace, therefore squeezing the edges of the touch control screen and causing the screen to fail. What is the capacity of SDHC card that T1000/T1005 can support? The specication of SDHC that T1000/T1005 SD card reader supports shall be in accordance with that of the SD Association. Currently, the maximum capacity announced by SD Association is 32GB http://www.sdcard.org/developers/tech/sdhc/ How can T1000/T1005 be upgraded in the DOS and Windows mode?
