[* red] Three special five-point Torx screws secure the battery to the upper case.
-[* black] Luckily, a common 1.5 mm flathead screwdriver works well enough to remove the screws.
-[* icon_caution] Be sure the head of your flathead screwdriver fits snugly across two of the five "points" of the screw head before trying to break the screw free, as a loose fit will easily strip the screw head. If the head of your screwdriver fits too loosely, find a bigger bit and file it down until it fits snugly before proceeding.
