Begin by placing your laptop on a clean surface such as a table and away from any liquids which may spill and damage components.
Flip the laptop over so the bottom is facing up.
Use your Phillips #0 screwdriver to remove the eleven visible 5 mm screws on the back of the laptop.
There are some screws underneath the rubber feet. Use a spudger to remove them and gain access.
Unscrew the two remaining 2.5mm screws. Keep these screws separate from the first eleven 5mm screws.

Remove the keyboard assembly.
