Preparing the Computer for Disassembly
|
Before beginning removal and replacement procedures,
complete the following procedures:
1. Disconnect AC power and any external devices.
2. Remove the battery pack.
3. Remove any PC Cards.
 |
WARNING: Metal objects can damage the battery pack as well as the battery
contacts in the battery compartment. To prevent damage, do not allow metal objects to
touch the battery contacts. Place only the battery pack for the Compaq Presario 1200
Series Portable Computers into the battery compartment. Do not force the battery pack into
the bay if insertion does not occur easily. |
 |
CAUTION: Do not crush, puncture,
or incinerate the battery pack. Do not open a battery pack, as this damages the pack,
makes it unusable, and exposes potentially harmful battery components. There are no
field-serviceable parts located inside the battery pack. |
NOTE: |
The Compaq Presario 1200
Series Portable Computers have several screws of various sizes which are not
interchangeable. Care must be taken during reassembly to ensure that the correct screws
are used in their correct location. During removal please keep respective screws with
their associated sub-assembly. |
