The MC500 and MC510 can be opened by the user. This does not void the warranty, however, any damage caused by doing so will not be covered.
The following steps will walk you through opening your MC500 and/or MC510 case, as well as auto-powering on and clearing CMOS.
Opening the MC500 & MC510 Case
The case is very simple to open. To do so, remove the two screws from the back and slide the lid off towards the rear.
The following sections contain instructions on how to enable Auto Power on and clear the CMOS for your specific model. To jump to your specific model, view the product list on the right.
