    • Open the case by prying on the edge with a suitable tool. I had to use a a opening pick to open the gap wide enough to be able to insert a flat screwdriver.

    • After inserting the screwdriver or a jimmy, bend the handle to the backside of the monitor. So that you lift the front bezel from the hooks and free it.

    • After opening two edges, be careful, since the panel and the logic board are only held in place by the closed case.

    • You probably will damage the case a bit during the process.

    • Flip the back side of the case to the right

    • Be careful with the wire to the USB hub. It's just long enough to flip the case and lay it down.

    • After this monitor was shipped there was a lose thing, that was making sound when moving the monitor.

    • Since I didn't know what was making the sound and it could have been conductive, I wanted to check the inside before powering it up. Thankfully it were only some plastic things.

    • They probably came lose from the back cover, where they hold the logic board in place.
