Replacing the Battery
The battery that comes with your computer provides power to the
real-time clock and has a lifetime of about three years. When
replacing the battery, use an equivalent 3-volt lithium coin cell
battery. A replacement battery may be purchased at your local retailer
or from the
Compaq.com Web site.

Battery Replacement
✎
Å
The spare part number for a standard coin cell battery is 153099-001,
which corresponds to a CR2032 battery or equivalent.
WARNING: Your computer contains an internal lithium manganese dioxide,
vanadium pentoxide, or alkaline battery or battery pack. There is a risk of fire
and burns if the battery pack is not handled properly. To reduce the risk of
personal injury:
■ Do not expose the battery to temperatures higher than
140° F (60° C).
■ Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, or
dispose of the battery in fire or water.
■ Replace the battery only with the Compaq spare designated for this
product.
■ Do not attempt to recharge the battery.

CAUTION: Static electricity can damage the electronic components of
the workstation or optional equipment. Before beginning these
procedures, ensure that you are discharged of static electricity by briefly
touching a grounded metal object.
Batteries, battery packs, and accumulators should not be disposed of
together with the general household waste. To forward them to recycling
or proper disposal, please use the public collection system or return them
to Compaq, your authorized partners, or their agents.
To replace the battery:
1. Shut down the operating system properly, turn off the computer
and any external devices, disconnect the power cord from the
electrical outlet, and remove the computer cover or access panel.

Follow these suggestions to take care of your personal computer and
monitor:
■ Operate the personal computer on a sturdy, level surface. Leave a
3-inch (7.6-cm) clearance at the back of the system unit and
above the monitor to permit the required airflow.
■ Never operate the personal computer with the cover or side panel
removed.
■ Never restrict the airflow into the personal computer by blocking
the air intake or exhaust vents.
■ Keep the personal computer away from excessive moisture, direct
sunlight, and extremes of heat and cold.
■ Keep liquids away from the personal computer and keyboard.
■ Never cover the ventilation slots on the monitor with any type of
material.
■ Turn off the personal computer before you do either of the
following:
❏ Wipe the exterior of the personal computer with a soft, damp
cloth as needed. Using cleaning products may discolor or
damage the finish.
❏ Occasionally clean the air intake and exhaust vents on the
personal computer. Lint and other foreign matter can block
the vents and limit the airflow.

Routine Care & Shipping Information
CD-ROM Drive Precautions
Be sure to observe the following guidelines while operating or
cleaning your CD-ROM drive.
Operation
■ Do not move the drive during operation. This may cause it to
malfunction during reading.
■ Avoid exposing the drive to sudden changes in temperature, as
condensation may form inside the unit. If the temperature
suddenly changes while the drive is on, wait at least one hour
before you turn off the power. If you operate the unit
immediately, it may malfunction while reading.
■ Avoid placing the drive in a location that is subject to high
humidity, extreme temperatures, mechanical vibration, or direct
sunlight.
Cleaning
Safety
■ Clean the panel and controls with a soft, dry cloth or a soft cloth
lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Never spray
cleaning fluids directly on the unit.
■ Avoid using any type of solvent, such as alcohol or benzene,
which may damage the finish.
If any object or liquid falls into the drive, immediately unplug the
personal computer and have it checked by an authorized Compaq
service provider.
3–2 Hardware Reference Guide
Shipping Preparation
Follow these suggestions when preparing to ship your personal
computer:
1. Back up the hard drive files onto the network or removable
media. Be sure that the backup media is not exposed to electrical
or magnetic impulses while stored or in transit.
Routine Care & Shipping Information
✎
The hard drive locks automatically when the system power is turned
off.
2. Remove and store separately any removable media and MultiBay
drives.
3. Turn off the personal computer and external devices.
4. Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet, then from
the personal computer.
5. Pack the system components, MultiBay drives, and external
devices in their original packing boxes or similar packaging with
sufficient packing material to protect them.
Hardware Reference Guide 3–3
Electrostatic Discharge
A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor may
damage system boards or other static-sensitive devices. This type of
damage may reduce the life expectancy of the device.
Preventing Electrostatic Damage
To prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions:
■ Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in
static-safe containers.
■ Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they
arrive at static-free workstations.
■ Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from
their containers.
4
■ Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
■ Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive
component or assembly.
Hardware Reference Guide 4–1
Electrostatic Discharge
Grounding Methods
There are several methods for grounding. Use one or more of the
following methods when handling or installing electrostatic-sensitive
parts:
■ Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded
workstation or computer chassis. Wrist straps are flexible straps
with a minimum of 1 Megaohm +/- 10 percent resistance in the
ground cords. To provide proper ground, wear the strap snug
against the skin.
■ Use heelstraps, toestraps, or bootstraps at standing workstations.
Wear the straps on both feet when standing on conductive floors
or dissipating floor mats.
■ Use conductive field service tools.
■ Use a portable field service kit with a folding static-dissipating
work mat.
✎
If you do not have any of the suggested equipment for proper
grounding, contact your Compaq authorized dealer, reseller, or
service provider.
For more information on static electricity, contact your Compaq
authorized dealer, reseller, or service provider.
