Introduction

All the buttons on the tablet are located in one corner. They are all controlled by a button module board, which can be removed if desired.

    • Separate the tablet from the base by pressing the large silver button below the tablet. The silver button is located at the base of the tablet.

    • Remove the tablet by lifting up.

    • Insert the opening tool into the seam of the tablet casing and gently pry upwards.

    • With a little force, you will feel the clips release.

    This image seems not to show the correct position where to place the tip of the tool initially. It suggests to pry between the frame and the glass pane from the top of the tablet. That's what I did and broke the glass - one device spoilt. Only the next picture correctly shows where to apply the tool.

    • Slide the tool along all four edges of the tablet, making sure that all the clips are released.

    • Do not break these clips; otherwise, the screen will become less secure.

My problem is that when reinstalltng the back cover the button does not fit the button module to press the on/off switch. The switch works allright.

What can i do? At this moment I can only switch the tablet on after removing the back cover.
