Nessuna parte specificata.

Using needle nose pliers, remove the washers from the four corner selector knobs.

Flip the device over. Using a Philips #2 screw driver, remove the fourteen 10.3 mm black screws holding the back panel in place.

Carefully flip the device to the front making sure you secure the face plate and the chassis together.
Please use care in following the step above to avoid ripping the ribbon cables connecting the two sides.

Rotate the device 180 degrees and carefully remove the face plate by slightly lifting the screen side towards you and then sliding the bottom out from under the keys.
Use care when doing the step above so that the ribbon connectors which connect the top of the chassis to the top of the face plate are not damaged.

Rotate the device 180 degrees, so that the motherboard is closest to you.
Take caution to not damage the ribbon cable connecting the face plate to the chassis.
Remove the ribbon cable connecting the knobs to the mother board by gently wiggling and pulling it away from the motherboard.
