    • The top cover is made of printed circuit board (PCB) material. Press gently but firmly near an edge when applying the suction handle to avoid breaking the cover.

    • Apply a suction handle to the top cover.

    • Use the suction handle to lift the top cover off of the laptop.

    • Alternatively, you can use a thin prying tool to lift the cover, or tilt the laptop until the cover falls out.

    • There's a thermal pad between the top cover and the processor that may stick to the top cover during removal.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
