Now it's time to remove the keyboard. Use the Jimmy Tool to slide between the keyboard and the top panel. Gently pop the tabs out of their slots and the keyboard will come loose. DO NOT PULL THE KEYBOARD OUT YET.

Before you lift the keyboard out of place, note the two flat flex cables for the key input and keyboard backlights. One is larger than the other. Lift the keyboard just high enough to gently release them from the two ports seen here with a pair of non-static tweezers.

Once the cables are safely detached, lift the keyboard off of the laptop and place it on a safe, non-static surface.
