i just discovered there is a magnet on the left bezel to hold the front row remote. this probably documented the user manual but i never read those things.

Wouldn't this be the magnet to hold the lid down? or am I confused?

The magnet is there for the screen closure system. You will notice if you offer your remote up to the whole bezel, the left and right top corners are the most magnetic.
