Einleitung

Use this guide to replace the battery in your ASUS TUF Dash F15.

For your safety, discharge the battery below 25% before disassembling your device. This reduces the risk of fire if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.

Werkzeuge

Schritt 1

Remove the 14 Phillips screws securing the lower case:
Seven 8.8 mm screws
Seven 10.1 mm screws
Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the captive screw.
Loosening this captive screw will pop up and separate the bottom-right corner of the back cover from the chassis.
During reassembly, tighten the captive screw before the rest of the screws.

Schritt 2

Insert an opening pick between the lower case and the chassis on the front right edge near the captive screw.

Schritt 3

Slide the pick along the front edge to release the clips securing the lower case.
Repeat this process along the perimeter of the lower case to release the remaining clips.

Schritt 4

Lift the lower case from the chassis and remove it.
During reassembly, this is a good point to power on your laptop and test all functions before sealing it up. Be sure to power your laptop back down before you continue working.

Schritt 5

Use tweezers, or your fingers, to peel back the tape on the battery connector.

Schritt 6

Use the flat end of a spudger to gently push the locking bar away from the battery connector.
Make sure the locking bar is not covering the battery connector, or you may damage the battery connector's socket in the next step.

Schritt 7

Insert the pointed end of a spudger under the battery connector.
Pry under the left edge of the battery connector to disconnect the left side of the connector.
Repeat this procedure for the right side of the connector.
