It does not come with a dvd or flash drive at all. Just a recovery partition. Also, re-download Lion and iLife 11 through Mac App Store.

Here is a link to Apple answer about new iMac's with Lion and iLife.

So if the content in recovery partition is doomed by whatever reason, what can I do? bring it to a apple store?

If you read you will see directions on how to install on a new hard drive from the link I provided

if the hard drive is bad as well, you'd have to take it into an applestore anyway since the hard drives are apple proprietary now in the new iMacs.
