Removal Instructions
Note: Normally we would advise you to click on the title of the section you want to open below, to see the contents. However, this type of notebook is classed as an Ultrabook and as such does not have any parts that Dell considers a customer replaceable part.
| 1 | Small Phillip's head screwdriver | 2 | Plastic Scribe |
| 3 | Small Flathead screwdriver |
Note: Be aware that using a large Phillips or Flat Head screwdriver may result in damage to the head of the screws. This would make their removal impossible without speciality tools, that aren't available to our onsite engineers.
