2Raise the display panel to open the computer. As you raise the display panel, the four latches will retract into the display panel.

NOTE: If the system battery is drained and there is no power source, the latches will not retract.

Closing the Display Panel

1Before closing the display panel, ensure that the keyboard is firmly secured against the computer base.

2Slowly lower the display panel toward the computer base. As you lower the display panel, the four display latches will emerge from the display panel to secure the display to the computer base and keyboard.

NOTE: If the system battery is drained and there is no power source, the latches will not automatically emerge, but you can manually activate them by sliding the display latch release buttons forward.

3Firmly close the lid so all four latches are engaged.

NOTICE: Ensure that all four latches are engaged securely before picking up the computer to move it or the keyboard could fall and be damaged.
