Introduction

This replacement requires only a standard Phillips #0 screwdriver and a plastic opening tool. The screwdriver is used to remove the screws on the bottom panel of the laptop and the screws connecting the battery to the laptop. This is a simple replacement and should not require any additional knowledge or information.

What you need

Step 1

              Back Panel               

• Position the laptop so that the bottom panel is facing upwards, the hinge is away from you, and the ASUS logo is against the table.
• It will be easier to replace the battery if the laptop is closed.

• Make sure to use a plastic tool, not a metal one, so that you don’t scratch the panel.
