Removing the Keyboard

1 Follow the instructions in "Before You Begin" on page 155.
2 Remove the hinge cover (see "Removing the Hinge Cover" on page 174).

NOTICE:

The keycaps on the keyboard are fragile, easily dislodged, and time-

consuming to replace. Be careful when removing and handling the keyboard.

3 Remove the two M2 x 3-mm screws to either side of the rotating hinge at

the top of the keyboard.
