Keyboard
¶
-
On the keyboard, remove the F1, F2, F11, and F12 keys.
-
This is scary - take a deep breath before continuing. Place your index finger under the upper left corner of the key and lift up until you hear a click. Then, transfer your finger to the left edge of the key and lift up to pull the key off.
-
You're freeing the two tabs on the left of the key from the two small holes in the plastic scissors mechanism.
-
When replacing the keys in the keyboard, place the key directly over the slot where it will go and press down until you hear the key click into place.
