    • Insert the pick between the black faceplate and white casing of the Nest Hello.

    • Pry the faceplate away from the device with the opening pick.

    • If you have not opened the Nest Hello before, there will be a protective foam mesh that is glued to the plastic covering and the inside of the mesh, use a pick to cut through the mesh as much as possible.

    • Completely remove the faceplate from the device, do not be afraid to pull hard.

    • Peel back the cover stickers and use the Phillips #000 screwdriver to remove the four screws.

    There is a small circle sticker over each screw, about the size of the red circles in the image above. It wasn't clear from the directions what the "cover stickers" were. A small exacto knife was helpful to pry up the edge of each sticker.
