2. Step 2
  Unplug the cord connecting the top button panel to the projector,
  
  Make sure to disconnect the end connected to the panel and not the chassis.
  
  The cord is small and sensitive and could sustain damage if pulled out aggressively.

5. Step 4
  There are three Phillips screws securing the case on. Two are inside the opening left by the previous step, and the third is located on the underside of the projector. Remove all three.
  
  The third sticker may be located underneath a QA (quality assurance) sticker. If you are having trouble finding it, look for that sticker.

6. Step 5
  Insert a spudger into the seam between the lower panel and chassis.
  
  Pry around the perimeter until the lower panel fully releases.
  
  We suggest starting at the front, but starting from any side will work.

1. Step 7 Main Board
  Disconnect all of the motherboard connectors.
  
  The cables are small and thus subject to damage if removed improperly or aggressively.
