Removing the Keyboard
To remove the keyboard, complete the following steps:
1. Prepare the Notebook for disassembly ( pg 12 ).
2. Remove the Palmrest Cover with TouchPad ( pg 15 ).
3. Gently lift up the front of the keyboard and disconnect the flex cable from the
ZIF Connector on the system board and remove the keyboard.
To replace the keyboard, reverse the previous procedures.
Note: When replacing the keyboard, the Keyboard Ribbon Cable should fold behind the
ZIF Connector rather than underneath the keyboard.
