    • Remove the five Phillips #00 bottom and right side panel screws.

    Put a notice on here that the screws are very small and are easy to misplace while disassembling device. Also, while disassembling the device there was only one screw present, where the guide suggested there were three.

    • Remove the right side panel by pulling off the large silver piece.

    There is no reference to removing screws from the right side panel, where it is necessary to remove 2 screws to do so.
