Schritt 3

Remove the two 4.2mm screws at the bottom of the device using a Phillips #0 screwdriver.

Schritt 4

Insert the black spudger into the crease in the side of the GPS.
Move the end of the spudger down to break the seal between the two plastic shells.
Continue doing this along each side of the GPS to ensure a smooth removal.

Before seperating the cover panels secure the on/off slider to the front panel with tape. If it falls out the micro swith is easy to damage. The small white tab breaks with ease.
