Preparing your work space
Before performing maintenance on the convertible notebook, make sure that your work space and
the convertible notebook are correctly prepared.

• Use a stable and strong table, and make sure that the table top is large enough to hold each
component as you remove it.
• Use bright lighting to make part identification easier.
• Keep your work surface free from clutter and dust that may damage components.
• Use a magnetized screwdriver for removing screws.
