INTRODUCTION

Outline what you are going to teach someone how to do.

?️ TOOLS:

• Anti-Static Wrist Strap (1)

1️⃣ Step 1 - Battery

Place the laptop upside down on a table.

2️⃣ Step 2

Locate the battery (the grey block). Find the two tabs on one end of the battery near the side of the laptop.

Using your fingers, press both tabs down at once until they are fully depressed.

3️⃣ Step 3

While holding the tabs down, slowly pivot the battery up.

The battery is now free and safe to pull out.

4️⃣ Step 4 - Keyboard

Unscrew three 2.4mm and one 5.7mm screws using a Phillips # 0.

Unscrew three 1.9mm screws in the battery compartment still using a Phillips # 0.

5️⃣ Step 5

Mind the wire connections on the bottom right side of the monitor. They are still connected between the monitor and computer.

Raise the monitor as you normally would until it pops out by itself. Rotate the left side up and to the right to unhook hinges that may catch on the computer.

Lay the monitor flat next to the computer.

6️⃣ Step 6

Using a smaller spudger (like a PX3688), pivot the sound case out above the "F2" and "Insert" buttons.

Lift the case out and set it aside.

ℹ️ For the proceeding steps, put on your anti-static wrist strap and attach the metal clip to something metal and grounded in order to protect the delicate circuitry inside the computer.

7️⃣ Step 7

Using the same spudger, pry the top of the keyboard up above the "F2" key.

Turn the computer so that the bottom is facing you.

⚠️ The keyboard is connected to a black plastic strip, slowly pull the keyboard and place it to the side.

8️⃣ Step 8

⚠️ Disconnect the keyboard by gently pulling on the hard plastic square straight up from the white connector.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
