Step 1 Back Panel Assembly



• Remove the 10 marked screws using a Phillips #1 screwdriver from the back plate.
• M2.5 × 7 mm, Phillips-head (6) (RED circles)
• M2.5 × 4 mm, Phillips-head (4) (ORANGE circles)
• The red circles show the longer screws, and the orange circles show the shorter screws.
• Keep your screws organized. They’re different lengths and must go back in their original positions.

Step 2



• After removing all ten screws, use a plastic spudger to separate the bottom cover from the laptop.
• Gently slide the tool around the edges until the clips begin to release.
• Once all the clips are loose, lift the cover off and set it aside.
• The Wi-Fi card is located near one corner of the motherboard. It has two antenna wires connected to it (one black and one gray).
