Step 6
• The motherboard is an ESD sensitive component and should be handled with care. iFixit recommends using a anti-static bracelet whenever handling components of this nature to avoid damage.
• Grip the motherboard on both edges toward the top of the device.
• Do not lift the motherboard all the way out in this step; the ribbon cable on the underside needs to be disconnected first.
• Lift the motherboard up and away from the display, taking care not to put too much stress on the daughterboard ribbon cable.
