     Hinges with Bezel Brace
    Procedure
    Important:  In the following steps, note that because of the position of the bezel, the 
    designation of right and left differs. For example, the right hinge with bezel brace is 
    removed from the left side of the bezel because you are viewing the bezel from its inner 
    side. Likewise, the left hinge with bezel brace is removed from the right side of the bezel.
    1. From the left side of the bezel, remove the three screws. 
    2. Remove the right hinge with bezel brace from the left side of the bezel.

    Important:
     Make sure the magnet is in place before reassembling the display 
    module.
