    • Before you proceed, discharge your device battery below 25%. A charged lithium-ion battery can catch fire and/or explode if accidentally punctured.

    • Power off the device.

    • Locate the SD Card/SIM Card cover flap on the left side of the device.

    • Upon opening the cover flap you will find slots for SD Card and the SIM Card. Carefully remove these items if your device has them and set them aside.

    • Lift on the back cover to begin the removal process. Continue removing the back cover by working along the edge. Once removed set aside the back cover.

    • Place a plastic opening tool along the seam of the front plate and back plate. Run the opening tool along the seam while prying slightly in order to pop the plastic clips away from the front plate.

    • Once one or two clips have popped away you may begin to use your free hand to apply additional pressure while continuing to apply prying pressure as well with the opening tool.

    • Apply constant but controlled pressure while separating the front from the back. Damage may occur if using excessive pressure while separating the plates along the seam.
