| Step 1 :: Side Access Panel | Press the green release button on top of the side access panel. Pull off the side access panel to get inside the computer. NOTE: When putting the side access panel back on, make sure that the bottom of the panel lines up with the rail on the bottom, and that the chassis is locked with the green latches.
|
|
| Step 2 :: Opening the Chassis | Lay the computer on its side, ensuring that where the side access panel was is facing up.
|
|
| Step 3 | Unlock the top chassis by moving the two green locking latches upward and outward. Using the handle, gently swing the top chassis up and out until it rests firmly on the work surface.
|
|
| Step 4 :: Speaker Bezel | Gently pry up the four tabs on the top side of the speaker bezel. Swing the speaker bezel open. Release the eight tabs on the bottom side of the speaker bezel and remove the bezel from the computer.
|
|
| Step 5 :: Speaker Bezel Apple Logo | Insert the end of a bent paperclip or SIM eject tool into the small hole inside the speaker bezel. Push it further into the hole to pop the Apple logo out of the speaker bezel. NOTE: The Apple logo is held on with adhesive, so it may take a lot of force to pop it out.
