    • Starting from the USB port, use your opening tool to gently pry up the case.

    • Make sure you are prying on the cover itself, not the metal shield around the USB port.

    • Pry along the laptop in the order shown by the arrows.

    • Do NOT pry along the top side, or you risk damaging the casing. Stay with the arrows.

Can’t seem to find information about this but why should I discharge the laptop to 25% before I do this?

I bought a new wifi card that I will put in.

Björn Ridell - crwdns2934203:0crwdne2934203:0

You should discharge the laptop to minimize the danger of fire and exploding battery if accidentally damages or short circuit occur during handling the accumulator. Fully charged accumulators will react more violently when short-circuited or damaged.
