How to use

To replace the existing lower case, power down the laptop, disconnect all cables and remove the battery if possible. Unscrew the retaining fasteners and gently detach the old bottom panel, taking care not to disturb connected components. Position the replacement bottom case so that screw bosses and ports align with the laptop frame, then secure it with the original screws. After reassembly, verify that vents and ports are unobstructed and that the device boots and charges normally.

Usage recommendations

Handle the replacement part on a clean, static-free surface and use appropriate screwdrivers to avoid stripping fasteners. Retain original screws and any small parts or insulating pads from the old case for reuse. If you are unsure about disassembly or reassembly procedures, consult an authorized service guide or a professional technician to ensure correct installation and warranty compliance.
