Introduction

Removal of the keyboard will expose the internal components of the computer. These components are electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive components. It is important to ensure that an anti-static wrist strap and anti-static mat are used to prevent ESD from damaging other components inside of the device. For proper use of the anti-static wrist strap, refer to iFixit’s “How to set up your Anti-static mat and wristband” Guide.
