Power off and unplug your device before you begin.

Orient the laptop so that it is bottom up, and the trackpad is closest to you.

Unscrew the seven captive screws with a Phillips #00 screwdriver.

These screws will loosen, but stay attached to the cover. Do not attempt to completely remove them.

Slide a blue opening pick in the gap between the bottom panel and chassis, and pry off the one clip on each side.

Remove the back cover from the device.
