Carefully lift the bottom panel away from the chassis.More info: The internal layout is clean and practical, with the battery at the front, the upgradeable components in the middle, and the cooling system covering the top half. There is also an additional thermal pad on the inside of the bottom cover that makes contact with the cooling assembly.  Step 2: Battery Removal[...]
