    • 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.

    May be important to note that the power button is in the middle top of the keyboard and thus it would be safest to open the lid sideways with the lid partly open on a clean surface as to not drop or touch the pcb/mother board with the work surface.
