have 900 B after the serial number.

2. On the display bezel, remove the two upper bumpers and two lower screw covers (using a pointed
knife or probe), then remove the four screws.
3. Along the top of the display, pull the bezel upward, toward the edge of the case, until the snaps
release.
4. Starting at the top corners, repeat along the left and right sides, pulling outward to release the left
