[comp.sys.handhelds] Cleaning the screen on my 15C

6600dtam@ucsbuxa.ucsb.edu (DogCow) (04/22/91)

I have tried unsuccesfully to open my HP 15C enough to clean the screen.

I have removed the screws under the rubber feet, and can see the golden
p.c. board.

There is a metal bracket that (I think) is holding the pc board to the
front half of the case.  How does one remove the keypad part of the case,
and clean the lcd display and glass window.

Thanks

You can not remove the keyboard PCB from the case.  It is held down by
melted tabs of plastic called "hot-stakes".  I suggest you use a can of
compressed air to blow dust from the calculator as you now have it.  The
metal can you mention is holding the LCD in electrical contact with the
PCB.
