 "markdown": "# HP EliteBook x360 830 G6 battery replacement\n\nSource: https://kaas.hpcloud.hp.com/pdf-public/pdf_12664351_en-US-1.pdf (printed pages 29–37). OEM-documented procedure; not bench-tested.\n\nService classification: Customer Self-Repair chapter; regional/warranty eligibility must be checked; not blanket authorization. [HP manual, printed 34 / PDF 44](https://kaas.hpcloud.hp.com/pdf-public/pdf_12664351_en-US-1.pdf#page=44)\n\nScope: Replaceable battery in exact convertible model.\n\n## Applicability and parts\n\n- Exact x360 830 G6 convertible; no clamshell 830 substitution.\n\nDOCUMENTED manual table options follow. A table entry is not serial-specific fit, present availability, upgrade approval or a shopping recommendation. Check the actual product/configuration before selecting a spare.\n\n| Spare | Documented description / constraint | Evidence |\n|---|---|---|\n| L34449-002 | 4-cell, 53 Whr, 3.45 Ahr battery including cable; documented option; verify exact product/configuration | [HP manual, printed 37 / PDF 47](https://kaas.hpcloud.hp.com/pdf-public/pdf_12664351_en-US-1.pdf#page=47) |\n\n## Tools and handling\n\n- Torx T5 driver for cover\n- Phillips P0/P1 driver appropriate to screw head\n- nonconductive nonmarking pry tool\n- ESD protection and screw organizer\n\nThe model-specific preparation and handling citations are included in the first step. Use the correct driver for the actual head. Do not borrow screw, Battery Safe, keyboard-cable or memory-slot rules from another HP model.\n\n## Ordered procedure\n\nDOCUMENTED steps paraphrase HP. Reassembly expands HP’s reverse-procedure directions. Any combined order identified as PROPOSED is our own synthesis of those directions, not a separate HP or bench-verified instruction. No numeric torque or unprovided latch motion is added.\n\n1. **Prepare.** Confirm the exact model/product label and matching replacement configuration before opening. Shut down through the operating system (wake and shut down if uncertain about sleep/hibernation); unplug external devices and AC power. Work on a clean ESD-protected surface with grounded handling precautions; handle boards/modules by edges, keep liquids away, and sort screws by original location. Do not bend, crush, puncture or use a sharp tool against a battery. Stop for a swollen/damaged pack or a hardware/connector mismatch.

Release at the hinges, rotate the hinge-side edge upward, and lift off the cover. Keep each fastener at its original location; do not detach captive screws. (DOCUMENTED) [HP manual, printed 35 / PDF 45](https://kaas.hpcloud.hp.com/pdf-public/pdf_12664351_en-US-1.pdf#page=45); [HP manual, printed 36 / PDF 46](https://kaas.hpcloud.hp.com/pdf-public/pdf_12664351_en-US-1.pdf#page=46)\n\n3. **Isolate.** Disconnect the battery cable from the system board by its connector; do not pull its wires. Remove the five Phillips M2.0 × 3.5 battery screws and lift out the battery. Store it safely. (DOCUMENTED) [HP manual, printed 37 / PDF 47](https://kaas.hpcloud.hp.com/pdf-public/pdf_12664351_en-US-1.pdf#page=47)\n\n4. **Remove.** Compare replacement pack, cable and mounting points with the removed pack and documented option before installing. Do not transfer an unlisted clamshell battery into this convertible. (DOCUMENTED) [HP manual, printed 37 / PDF 47](https://kaas.hpcloud.hp.com/pdf-public/pdf_12664351_en-US-1.pdf#page=47)\n\n5. **Install.** Place the replacement battery in its original position and restore the five Phillips M2.0 × 3.5 screws. Reconnect its system-board cable after confirming that the cable is clear of pinching. (DOCUMENTED reverse-procedure direction) [HP manual, printed 37 / PDF 47](https://kaas.hpcloud.hp.com/pdf-public/pdf_12664351_en-US-1.pdf#page=47)\n\n6. **Close.** Check that every cable is seated and routed clear of the cover and that no screw/tool remains inside. Refit and seat the bottom cover, engaging its clips; restore five captive Torx T5 screws to their original holes. No numerical torque is supplied here. (PROPOSED combined reassembly order, following OEM reverse-procedure directions) [HP manual, printed 35 / PDF 45](https://kaas.hpcloud.hp.com/pdf-public/pdf_12664351_en-US-1.pdf#page=45); [HP manual, printed 36 / PDF 46](https://kaas.hpcloud.hp.com/pdf-public/pdf_12664351_en-US-1.pdf#page=46)\n\n## Proposed checks — all unperformed\n\n- UNPERFORMED: reconnect AC only after the cover is fitted; power on and check for startup/charging errors. Check battery recognition and charging behavior.\n- UNPERFORMED: if a fault appears, shut down and isolate power before any internal inspection.\n"
