Steps
1. Remove the eight (M2x3) T5 Torx screws that secure the base cover to the computer.
2. Using a plastic scribe, pry open the base cover starting from the SD-card slot on the base cover.
CAUTION:
Do not fully insert the plastic scribe into the SD-card slot before prying. Only pry the edge of base
cover nearest to the SD-card slot opening.
CAUTION:
Do not pry up from the top side (near the vents) of the base cover as this may cause damage to
the rear side of the cover.
3. Work your way around the bottom, left and right sides of the base cover.
4. Lift the bottom of the base cover and push it towards the rear of the system to remove it from the computer.
CAUTION:
Do not grasp from the rear vents and lift the base cover directly upwards to remove it, as this may
cause damage to the rear side of the cover.
5. Loosen the two captive screws that secure the battery connector bracket in place.
6. Disconnect the battery FPC cable from the connector on the system board.
NOTE:
Pull the pull tab vertically to disconnect the battery FPC cable.
