Opening the Computer Cover

1Turn off your computer and devices, and observe the caution for your personal safety and protection of your equipment described in “Safety First—For You and Your Computer.”

3Press the two release buttons until the cover is free to swing up.

NOTICE: Open the cover slowly to ensure that you do not damage any cables.

4Raise the back of the cover, and pivot it toward the front of the computer.
