Using a blue plastic opening tool, gently insert the tool between the back panel and the main body.
Going around the edge of the tablet, gently pry open the back panel. As you go around, you will hear a click.

Using a spudger, lift the flaps securing the four ZIF connectors.
The smaller of the four flaps may require you to use the point end of the spudger.
Use the pointed end of the spudger to disconnect the ribbon cables from their ZIF connectors.
Be careful not to damage any of the wires. If damaged, the tablet may not work correctly after repairing.
