Setting Up Your Computer 

WARNING 

Improper use of keyboards and other input devices has been associated with 
ergonomic injury. For information about reducing your risk, see Working in 
Comfort in the online HP Library, or visit our ergonomics web site, 
www.hp.com/ergo. For a summary about working with a notebook computer, see 
“Working in Comfort with a Notebook PC” on page 45. 
 
If you are using your notebook computer as your primary computer, or using it for 
extended periods, you should use it with a full-size keyboard, monitor, and mouse. 
This can reduce the risk of ergonomic injury. See Working in Comfort in the online 
HP Library. 

When you set up your computer for the first time, you’ll need to install and charge the 
battery, connect the AC adapter, turn on the computer, and run the Windows setup 
program. 

Step 1: Install the battery 

WARNING 

Do not mutilate or puncture batteries. Do not dispose of batteries in fire, or they 
can burst or explode, releasing hazardous chemicals. Rechargeable batteries must 
be recycled or disposed of properly. 

Your computer is shipped with the battery installed. If the battery has been removed, you 
should install it: 

1.  Turn the computer upside down.
