Removal Procedure
1. Unplug the ac adapter, if present, and remove the battery.
2. On the display bezel, remove the two upper bumpers and two lower screw covers (using a pointed
knife or probe), then remove the four screws.
3. Along the top of the display, pull the bezel upward, toward the edge of the case, until the snaps
release.
4. Starting at the top corners, repeat along the left and right sides, pulling outward to release the left
and right edges.
5. Lift the top of the bezel away from the case about 7 cm (3 inches). The snaps along the bottom of
the bezel should release.
6. At the top-right corner of the LCD module, unplug the LCD power wires from the power cable.

8. Lift up the right edge of the LCD module about 90°.

module.
