  • Power off the laptop and place it facedown on a non-scratching surface.
  • Remove the nine T5 screws fastening the back case.

Step 2

  • Slide a plastic opening tool underneath the back case near the screen hinges. Gently pry up on either side.
  • Slide the opening tool underneath the back case next to the middle screw hole at either side of the case. Gently pry up.
  • You may hear popping sounds as the tabs securing the case release. This is normal. If the case does not move, try prying at a different angle/position.
