To remove the rear cover:
Note
For this procedure, it helps to place the LED panel face-down on a
soft flat surface. Lenovo recommends that you use a blanket, towel,
or other soft cloth to protect the screen surface from scratches or
other damage.
1. Remove any media (diskettes, CDs, or memory cards) from the drives,
shut down your operating system, turn off all attached devices, and
the computer.
2. Unplug all power cords from electrical outlets.
3. Disconnect all cables attached to the computer. This includes power
cords, input/output (I/O) cables, and any other cables that are
connected to the computer.
4. Remove the hinge cover and the hinge. Refer to “Removing the hinge
cover” and “Removing the hinge from the LED panel”
5. Place the LED panel upside down on a flat surface. Slide the rear cover
towards you then lift it up.
