Mounting the computer
HP recommends mounting the computer in the vertical (tower) orientation, with the power button up.
CAUTION: Do not mount the computer with the I/O ports oriented towards the ground.
This computer incorporates four mounting points on the right side of the computer. These mounting points
follow the VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) standard, which provides industry-standard
mounting interfaces for Flat Displays (FDs), such as flat-panel monitors, flat displays, and flat TVs. The HP
Quick Release connects to the VESA-standard mounting points, allowing you to mount the computer in a
variety of orientations.
NOTE: When mounting to the computer, use the 15 mm screws supplied with the HP Quick Release.
To use the HP Quick Release:
1. Remove four screws from the right side of the computer.
