VAŽNO:

• Ne uklanjajte ugrađenu litijumsku bateriju. Za sve potrebe servisiranja obratite se svom lokalnom GIGABYTE ovlašćenom servisnom centru.
• Ne postavljajte notebook računar na nagnutu površinu ili na mesto gde dolazi do vibracija ili izbegavajte da koristite notebook računar na takvim mestima tokom dužeg vremenskog perioda. To povećava rizik od kvara ili nastanka oštećenja na proizvodu.
• Ne skladištite i ne koristite laptop računar na direktnom sunčevom svetlu ili lokacijama sa temperaturom većom od 45°C (112°F), na primer, unutar vozila. Postoji rizik od širenja litijum-jonske baterije i smanjenja njenog radnog veka.
• Ne koristite notebook računar na slabo provetrenim mestima, npr. na posteljini ili na jastuku itd. i ne koristite ga na mestima kao što je soba sa podnim grejanjem, jer to može dovesti do pregrevanja računara. Pazite da otvori za ventilaciju na notebook računaru (sa strane ili s donje strane) ne budu blokirani, posebno u takvim okruženjima. Ako su otvori blokirani, to može da bude opasno i dovede do pregrevanja notebook računara.

Prečice
