Tools required
You will need the following tools to complete the removal and replacement procedures:
● Flat-bladed screwdriver
● Magnetic screwdriver
● Phillips P0 and P1 screwdrivers
Service considerations
The following sections include some of the considerations that you must keep in mind during disassembly
and assembly procedures.
NOTE: As you remove each subassembly from the computer, place the subassembly (and all accompanying
screws) away from the work area to prevent damage.
Plastic parts
CAUTION: Using excessive force during disassembly and reassembly can damage plastic parts. Use care
when handling the plastic
Tools required 31
Cables and connectors
CAUTION: When servicing the computer, be sure that cables are placed in their proper locations during the
reassembly process. Improper cable placement can damage the computer.
Cables must be handled with extreme care to avoid damage. Apply only the tension required to unseat or
seat the cables during removal and insertion. Handle cables by the connector whenever possible. In all cases,
avoid bending, twisting, or tearing cables. Be sure that cables are routed in such a way that they cannot be
caught or snagged by parts being removed or replaced. Handle flex cables with extreme care; these cables
tear easily.
Drive handling
CAUTION: Drives are fragile components that must be handled with care. To prevent damage to the
computer, damage to a drive, or loss of information, observe these precautions:
Before removing or inserting a hard drive, shut down the computer. If you are unsure whether the computer
is off or in Hibernation, turn the computer on, and then shut it down through the operating system.
Before handling a drive, be sure that you are discharged of static electricity. While handling a drive, avoid
touching the connector.
Before removing a diskette drive or optical drive, be sure that a diskette or disc is not in the drive and be sure
that the optical drive tray is closed.
Handle drives on surfaces covered with at least one inch of shock-proof foam.
Avoid dropping drives from any height onto any surface.
Avoid exposing an internal hard drive to products that have magnetic fields, such as monitors or speakers.
Avoid exposing an internal hard drive to products that have magnetic fields, such as monitors or speakers.
Avoid exposing a drive to temperature extremes or liquids.
If a drive must be mailed, place the drive in a bubble pack mailer or other suitable form of protective
packaging and label the package “FRAGILE.”
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the computer when you are removing or installing internal components,
observe these precautions:
Keep components in their electrostatic-safe containers until you are ready to install them.
Before touching an electronic component, discharge static electricity by using the guidelines described in this
section.
Avoid touching pins, leads, and circuitry. Handle electronic components as little as possible.
If you remove a component, place it in an electrostatic-safe container.
The following table shows how humidity affects the electrostatic voltage levels generated by different
activities.

Grounding guidelines 33
Packaging and transporting guidelines
Follow these grounding guidelines when packaging and transporting equipment:
● To avoid hand contact, transport products in static-safe tubes, bags, or boxes.
● Protect ESD-sensitive parts and assemblies with conductive or approved containers or packaging.
● Keep ESD-sensitive parts in their containers until the parts arrive at static-free workstations.
● Place items on a grounded surface before removing items from their containers.
● Always be properly grounded when touching a component or assembly.
● Store reusable ESD-sensitive parts from assemblies in protective packaging or nonconductive foam.
● Use transporters and conveyors made of antistatic belts and roller bushings. Be sure that mechanized
equipment used for moving materials is wired to ground and that proper materials are selected to avoid
static charging. When grounding is not possible, use an ionizer to dissipate electric charges.
Workstation guidelines
Follow these grounding workstation guidelines:
● Cover the workstation with approved static-shielding material.
● Use a wrist strap connected to a properly grounded work surface and use properly grounded tools and
equipment.
● Use conductive field service tools, such as cutters, screwdrivers, and vacuums.
● When fixtures must directly contact dissipative surfaces, use fixtures made only of staticsafe materials.
● Keep the work area free of nonconductive materials, such as ordinary plastic assembly aids and
Styrofoam.
● Handle ESD-sensitive components, parts, and assemblies by the case or PCM laminate. Handle these
items only at static-free workstations.
● Avoid contact with pins, leads, or circuitry.
● Turn off power and input signals before inserting or removing connectors or test equipment.

10 Backing up, restoring, and recovering
IMPORTANT: For tablets, connect to the keyboard dock before beginning these steps (select models only).
1. From the Start screen, type recovery, and then select HP Recovery Manager.
2. Select Recovery Media Creation, and then follow the on-screen instructions.
If you ever need to recover the system, see Recovering using HP Recovery Manager on page 85.
IMPORTANT: HP Recovery Manager does not automatically provide backups of your personal data. Before
beginning recovery, back up any personal data you wish to retain.
IMPORTANT: For tablets, connect to the keyboard dock before beginning these steps (select models only).
NOTE: If the computer does not automatically restart in HP Recovery Manager, change the computer
boot order. See Changing the computer boot order on page 86.
IMPORTANT: After you remove the HP Recovery partition, you can no longer use the Windows Refresh
option or the Windows option to remove everything and reinstall Windows. In addition, you will not be able to
perform System Recovery or Minimized Image Recovery from the HP Recovery partition. So before you
remove the Recovery partition, create HP Recovery media; see Creating HP Recovery media on page 83.
Recovery after a system failure is as good as your most recent backup. As you add new software and data
files, you should continue to back up your system on a regular basis to maintain a reasonably current backup.
CAUTION: Using Restore completely erases hard drive contents and reformats the hard drive. All files you
have created and any software installed on the computer are permanently removed. The recovery tool
reinstalls the original operating system and programs and drivers that were installed at the factory.
Software, drivers, and updates not installed at the factory must be manually reinstalled. Personal files must
be restored from a backup.
NOTE: HP recommends that you create the image restore in the event of a system failure.
Verify the exact amount of free space on your storage device before you begin the creation process. For most
models, you will need at least 8 GB of free space on the storage device. However, depending on the drivers
and software installed on your computer, you may need slightly more than 8 GB of space. HP recommends
that you use a 16 GB device or above for best results.
IMPORTANT: Remember to insert your USB device into the USB port on the computer before starting this
procedure.
NOTE: If the USB device is not listed in the drop-down list for Backup Location, select Local Folder,
and then click the Choose Folder button. Select the USB device from the panel on the left side of the
Choose Folder window, and click OK.
3. Select Overview from the panel on the left side of the window, and then click Backup Now.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions.
NOTE: If you are unable to boot (start up) your computer, and you did not create a system recovery disc,
you must purchase an Ubuntu Operating System DVD to reinstall the operating system. For additional
information, refer to the Worldwide Telephone Numbers booklet.
NOTE: Before you back up your information, be sure you have designated a location to save the backup
files.
1. Click the System menu icon at the far right of the top panel, and then click System Settings > Backup
icon.
2. Select Folders from the panel on the left side of the window, and beneath Folders to back up, select the
folders to back up.
3. Select Storage from the panel on the left side of the window, click the down-arrow next to Backup
Location, and select Ubuntu One from the drop-down list.
4. Select Overview from the panel on the left side of the window, and then click Back Up Now.
NOTE: You may also back up to cloud storage services provided by various companies. For a small fee, they
will keep your backup for you. A cloud service is recommended, since it is an easy way to keep your backups
off-site and safe.
The wide-range input feature of the computer permits it to operate from any line voltage from 100 to 120 V
ac, or from 220 to 240 V ac.
The 3-conductor power cord set included with the computer meets the requirements for use in the country or
region where the equipment is purchased.
Power cord sets for use in other countries or regions must meet the requirements of the country and region
where the computer is used.
