    Disassembly, maintenance and upgrade options

    Opening the DeviceUndo the 11 Phillips-head screws securing the bottom panel. Pop the zones behind the hinges with a lever tool. Pry the sides and the front, leaving the rear for last.More info: Under the hood, this laptop resembles the Acer Aspire 7 (A715-76G).Battery RemovalThe battery is not secured with screws, as there is a dedicated socket for it on the inside of the bottom panel that keeps it in place. Detach the connector from the motherboard. Lift the battery unit away from the base.Note: The laptop has a 57Wh battery, providing approxim[...]
