Prerequisites

About this task
The following images indicate the location of the base cover, and provide a visual representation of the removal procedure.
NOTE Systems enabled with 4G LTE will be shipped with either captive/Torx screws (M2.5x4+2.5).
Steps
- Loosen the nine captive screws that secure the base cover to the computer chassis.
- Use a plastic scribe to pry open the base cover, starting from the U-shaped indents at the top side of the base cover, and then working along the sides.
NOTE While removing the base cover, on-site technicians must take care to remove the base cover carefully. There are prying recess points next to the left and right hinges which ease the disassembly procedure. With the help of a plastic scribe, pry open from the upper left side of the base cover, continue working your way around the left and right side of the base cover, then remove the base cover from the system.
- Lift and remove the base cover from the computer chassis.
- Disconnect the battery cable from the connector on the system board.
