Mazda CX-5 FWD Installation guide

Hello! I've reviewed the user manual for the Mazda CX-5 L4-2.5L (SKYACTIV-G) focusing on the upper panel removal and installation process. The manual provides step-by-step instruction, including disconnecting electrical components, like the commander switch and parking brake switch, and detailing the order in which to detach the panel. I'm ready to assist with any questions you have regarding this procedure.
What is the first step in removing the upper panel?

What should be done after opening the console lid?

What connectors need to be disconnected?
