Schritt 1

Before you begin, be sure to turn off your laptop and discharge the battery down to 25%.
Use a Torx T5 screwdriver to remove the eight, 3mm screws on the bottom cover of the laptop.
Whenever you remove screws from the device, remember to save and label them.

Schritt 2

Remove the bottom cover of the laptop by sliding it away from the hinge.
Do not force the cover up!

Schritt 3

Use your fingernail to pry up and disconnect the battery from the motherboard.

Schritt 4

Use a Phillips #00 screwdriver to remove the six, 5mm screws securing the battery.

Do you have to remove the battery before swapping the wifi card? Is disconnecting the power not enough?

Hi Charles,

If you’re swapping the Wi-Fi card, you don’t need to remove the battery. Disconnecting it will suffice.

Are two of these screws shorter than the other four? And if so, where do the two shorter screws go?

Looks like the two shorter screws go where the trackpad is!

Schritt 5

Remove any tape attached to the battery.
Use the plastic spudger to pry out the battery.

After removing the 6 screws securing the battery, mine does not come out easily. There is resistance, and I don't wanna forcefully pull it out. Is it supposed to be easy to pick up and take out or is there some sort of tape holding it down from the bottom?
