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. |
