Figure 2-1. Removing the Computer Cover

CAUTION: To prevent cuts, keep your hands clear of the metal edges on the
chassis.
3. Lift the cover out from the curves at the bottom of the chassis.
Replace the computer cover as follows:
1. Check all cable connections, especially those that might have come loose during
your work. Fold cables and unused connectors out of the way so that they do not
catch on the computer cover or interfere with airflow inside the computer.
2. Check to see that no tools or extra parts (including screws) are left inside the
computer.
3. Place the chassis upright with the front facing you. Align the computer cover so
its bottom hooks fit in the chassis curves.
4. Lift up the cover, making sure to keep the bottom hooks aligned with the curves
in the chassis.
5. Gently squeeze the right and left sides of the computer together until the cover
clicks into position.
