2
Before You Begin
1. Ground yourself when working on the computer.
2. To avoid generating static electricity, do not walk around the
room until you have finished working and closed the computer.
3. The internal components of your MacBook Pro can be warm.
If you have been using your MacBook Pro, wait 10 minutes
after shutting down to let the internal components cool before
continuing.
4. Keep drinks and other liquids away from the area where you
are working on the system.
Opening the Computer
Step 1.
Shut down the system. Disconnect the power adapter,
Ethernet cable, USB cables, security lock, and any other cables
connected to the system to prevent damaging the computer.
Step 2.
Turn over your system and locate the latch. Push down to
release the latch and remove the access door that covers the bat-
tery and hard drive.
Note:
The latch must be in its released, open position to
remove and replace the battery and access door.
Step 3.
With the latch still in its open position, gently pull up on the
see-thru tab attached to the battery to lift it out of its bay.
Step 4.
Using the sup-
plied screwdriver, remove
the eight screws that se-
cure the bottom case, and
then remove the bottom
case.
