Display Hinge Behavior<br />

The MacBook Pro models have a unique counterbalanced clutch system that prov<strong>id</strong>es a<br />

smooth, flu<strong>id</strong> feel when opening, closing, or positioning the display. The counterbalanced clutch<br />

system was designed so that when the display is vertical with respect to the ground, it will<br />

remain in place regardless of the angle of the base.<br />

Moving the display past vertical allows the hinges to release and the display to close. This is<br />

normal behavior and no repair is necessary.<br />

Refer to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3304 for more information and to watch a v<strong>id</strong>eo of<br />

this hinge behavior.<br />
