HP Pavilion w1200 Warranty and Support Guide - Page 12

We know that expanding and upgrading are key benefits for all customers. We are proud to make this a key differentiator for our HP Pavilion and understand that you may wish to upgrade your PC to meet your specific needs. Any hardware upgrades that you intend to do should only be done after you have completely set up your new HP Pavilion. Refer to the setup poster included with your system for help with setting up. If you have any problems setting up your system and turning it on, immediately contact the HP Customer Care Center listed earlier in the Warranty and Support Guide, and an HP Customer Representative will assist you. This must be done first before attempting to upgrade your system. By breaking the security seal on the back of the HP Pavilion, you are confirming that the HP Pavilion was working properly before you attempted to upgrade your system. Once the security seal has been broken, your HP Pavilion is then, to the extent allowed by local law, covered under the terms and conditions listed in the following pages. Thank you for choosing the HP Pavilion. We hope you enjoy discovering the exciting things you can do with it! HP Customer Care Easy to reach. Easy to use. Award-winning HP Customer Care is our promise to help you get the most from your HP Pavilion. Whether with tools located on your PC, from information on the Web, by phone, or through your local retailer, you'll find what you need. Problems?
