    • Loosen the two 5.7 mm screws on the bottom panel using a PH00 screwdriver.

    • The screws do not come out of the panel due to small washers. Do not try to remove the screws completely.

    • Use the metal spudger all around the panel to pop it up from the base.

    • When working with electronics, it's important to choose a tool that's ESD-safe to avoid accidental damage to the device. The regular black nylon spudger or a plastic opening tool should be used whenever possible.

    • Using your finger is acceptable but not entirely recommended. Be gentle if you choose to use your hands.

    • Insert a plastic spudger or similar pry tool, beneath the keyboard, near the "insert" key, and pop the keyboard up from the laptop.

    • When working with electronics, it's important to choose a tool that's ESD-safe to avoid accidental damage to the device. The regular black nylon spudger or a plastic opening tool should be used whenever possible.

    • Starting at the opening you just created, run your fingers around the outside of the keyboard separating it from the rest of the computer.

    • Only lift the keyboard up a few inches because it is attached to the laptop by a ribbon cable.
