Removal and replacement preliminary requirements Tools required You will need the following tools to complete the removal and replacement procedures: Magnetic screw driver ● Phillips P0 screw driver ● Plastic case utility tool ● Torx T5 screw driver ● Service considerations The following sections include some of the considerations that you must keep in mind during disassembly and assembly procedures.
Grounding guidelines Electrostatic discharge damage Electronic components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Circuitry design and structure determine the degree of sensitivity. Networks built into many integrated circuits provide some protection, but in many cases, ESD contains enough power to alter device parameters or melt silicon junctions.
Packaging and transporting guidelines Follow these grounding guidelines when packaging and transporting equipment: To avoid hand contact, transport products in static-safe tubes, bags, or boxes. ● Protect ESD-sensitive parts and assemblies with conductive or approved containers or ● packaging. Keep ESD-sensitive parts in their containers until the parts arrive at static-free workstations. ●...
Page 16
Equipment guidelines Grounding equipment must include either a wrist strap or a foot strap at a grounded workstation. When seated, wear a wrist strap connected to a grounded system. Wrist straps are flexible ● straps with a minimum of one megohm ±10% resistance in the ground cords. To provide proper ground, wear a strap snugly against the skin at all times.
Accessing these parts can damage the tablet and void the warranty. NOTE: HP continually improves and changes product parts.
