    • Before you begin, power off your device completely and disconnect from the charging adapter.

    • Flip the laptop over so the bottom is facing up.

    • Use a Phillips #1 screwdriver to remove ten 5.6 mm screws from the back panel.

    • Place the end of an opening tool in the seam between the bottom and top case and slide it around the perimeter to release the clips holding it together.

    • Use a few opening picks in the seam to keep the clips from reattaching.

    • Remove the back panel.

    • Use the point of a spudger to push on alternating sides of the battery connector to "walk" it out of its socket on the motherboard.

    • It may take a lot of alternating before the connector comes out. Be patient, and don't pull on the cables.

    • To reconnect the cable, align the connector and use a spudger or clean fingernail to push it fully into the socket.

    • Don't push on the cables themselves, or you may damage the connector.

    • Lift the battery upwards to remove it from the device.
