Grab the bottom part of the palm rest and pull it up from the base of the laptop. Continue to pull up around the piece until all the clips release.

It will take a significant amount of force to separate this piece.

Rotate the piece up and away from you.

Caution! Be sure the black and white antenna wires do not get stuck. You may need to help pull them through the hole.

Lift the piece off the laptop and set it aside
