Removing the bottom cover

The bottom cover is held in place by a retaining screw located on the bottom cover and accessible through the opening in the handle. After removing the screw, the user can remove the cover by pulling up and out on the handle.

Unfastening the Cables

Several signal cables are connected to the back of the logic board assembly, as shown in Figure 4-2. Those must be disconnected and freed from their clamps. Once the cables and clamps are disconnected, the user should position the cables to either side of the logic board assembly, as shown in Figure 4-3.
