EnglishISafety InstructionsUse the following safety guidelines to help protect yourself and your notebook.When Using Your T1125 Notebook Computer CAUTION: Do not operate your portable computer for an extended period of time with the base resting directly on your body. With extended operation, heat can build up in the base. Allowing sustained contact with the skin can cause discomfort or a possible burn. • Do not attempt to service the notebook yourself. Always follow installation instructions closely.• Do not carry a battery in your pocket, purse, or other container where metal objects (such as car keys) could short-circuit the battery terminals. The resulting excessive current ow can generate extremely high temperature and may cause burns to your skin.• Be sure that nothing rests on your AC adapter's power cable and that the cable is not located where it can be tripped over or stepped on.• While you are using the computer or charging the battery, place the AC adapter in a ventilated area, like on a desktop or on the oor. Do not cover the AC adapter with papers or other items that may prevent ventilation. Also, do not use the AC adapter while it is inside a carrying case.• Do not insert objects into the air vent of your notebook computer. Doing so can cause short-circuiting and may result in re or electrical shock.• Use only the AC adapter and batteries that are supplied by your notebook manufacturer. Using other types of battery or AC adapter may heighten the risk of re or explosion.• Incorrectly installed or placed batteries may result in an explosion.• Replace only with the same or a compatible battery recommended by the manufacturer.• Please discard used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions.• Before you connect your notebook to a power source, ensure that the voltage rating of the AC adapter matches that of the available power source.-115 V/60 Hz in most of North and South America and some FarEasterncountriessuchasSouthKorea.-100V/50HzineasternJapanand100V/60HzinwesternJapan.-230V/50HzinmostofEurope,theMiddleEast,andtheFarEast.• If you use an extension cord with your AC adapter, ensure that the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed its total capacity.• When removing a battery from your notebook, rst turn off the system, disconnect the AC adapter from the electrical outlet, and then remove the battery.• To avoid risk of an electrical shock, do not connect or disconnect any cables, or perform any maintenance or reconguration of this product during a thunderstorm.• Do not throw batteries into a re, doing so may cause explosion. Check with local authorities rst for battery disposal instructions.• When setting up your notebook for work, place it on a level surface.

EnglishIXThe FCC RF safety requirementThe radiated output power of the wireless LAN Mini PCI Card and Bluetooth card is far below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, the notebook PC series shall be used in such a manner that the potential for human contact during normal operation is minimized as follows:1 Users are requested to follow the RF safety instructions on wireless option devices that are included in the user's manual of each RF option device. Caution: To comply with FCC RF exposure compliancerequirements, a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches)must be maintained between the antenna for the integratedwireless LAN Mini PCI Card built in to the screen section and allpersons.Note: The wireless Mini PCI adapter implements a transmissiondiversity function. The function does not emit radio frequenciessimultaneously from both antennas. One of the antennas isselected automatically or manually (by users) to ensure goodquality radiocommunication.2 This device is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15 to5.25 GHz frequency range. FCC requires this product to be used indoors for the frequency range 5.15 to 5.25 GHz to reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems.3 High power radar are allocated as primary users of the 5.25 to 5.35 Hzand 5.65 to 5.85 GHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference with and/or damage this device.4 An improper installation or unauthorized use may cause harmfulinterference to radio communications. Also any tampering of the internal antenna will void the FCC certication and your warranty.Canada — Low-power license-exempt radio communication devices (RSS-210)Exposure of humans to RF elds (RSS-102)The notebook PC series employs low gain integral antennas that do not emit RF eld in excess of Health Canada limits for the general population; consult Safety Code 6, obtainable from Health Canada's website at www.hc-sc.gc.ca/rpb.This device complies with RSS210 of Industry Canada.This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003, Issue 4, and RSS-210, No 4 (Dec 2000) and No 5 (Nov 2001).

English23T1125 SERIES USER’S MANUAL How can T1125 BIOS be upgraded in the DOS and Windows mode? Please refer to GIGABYTE website “How to upgrade T1125 BIOS in the DOS and Windows mode?”5.3 Questions And AnswersQ: I can feel a mild heat next to the battery pack. Is this normal? A: The battery will generate heat during recharging and discharging. There is a protection circuit inside the Notebook to prevent overheating. User needs not worry. Q: My battery operation time is not as long as it should be. Why? A: 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.Q: 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? A: 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 Notebook and have the AC adapter connected whenever possible.Q: I did not use my spare battery for months. I have a problem with recharging it. A: 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. Pre-Charge may take 30 minutes. Fast Charge usually takes 2~3 hours.
