● Do not touch the connectors with any metallic surface or object, such as metal
tools, screws, or coins, which can cause shorting across the connectors.
Before removing the battery, follow these steps:
1. Prepare the computer for disassembly (see Preparation for disassembly on page 41).
2. Remove the bottom cover (see Bottom cover on page 41).
WARNING! To reduce potential safety issues, use only the user-replaceable battery
provided with the computer, a replacement battery provided by HP, or a compatible
battery purchased from HP.
IMPORTANT: Removing a battery that is the sole power source for the computer can
cause loss of information. To prevent loss of information, save your work or shut down
the computer through Windows before you remove the battery.
Remove the battery:
1. Disconnect the battery cable (1) from the system board.
2. Remove the four Phillips M2.0 × 2.5 screws (2) that secure the battery to the
computer.
3. Remove the speaker cable from the clips on the bottom of the battery (3).
