Einleitung

Shut down your computer. Disconnect all power sources before opening the computer cover or panels.
Remove the battery.

To avoid electrostatic discharge, ground yourself by using a wrist grounding strap or by periodically touching a connector on the back panel of the computer
The hinge cover is fragile and can be damaged if extreme force is used. Be careful when removing the hinge cover. To avoid damaging the hinge cover, do not lift the cover on both sides simultaneously.
Turn the computer top-side up, and then open the display all the way (180 degrees) so that it rests on your work surface.

Insert a scribe into the indent to carefully pry up the hinge cover on the right side.
Ease the hinge cover up, moving from right to left, and remove it.

To replace the hinge cover, insert the left edge of the cover into the hinge cover slot, and press from left to right until the cover snaps into place.
