Introduction

This is a prerequisite guide! This guide is part of another procedure and is not meant to be used alone.

This guide shows the safety requirements and what to do before starting repairs on an Apple Watch Ultra.

Before starting repairs, take your watch off the charger and power it down.
If your touchscreen is broken and you can't power off the watch, use this alternate method to power it down.

Because the gap between the screen/sensor assembly and watch body is so thin, a thin metal tool is needed to separate the two. Read the following warnings carefully before proceeding.
Protect your fingers by keeping them completely clear of the front end of your tool. If in doubt, protect your free hand with a heavy glove, such as a leather shop glove or gardening glove.
Be careful not to apply too much pressure, as this might cause the iFlex to slip and cut you, or damage the watch.
Wear eye protection. The glass may break, sending pieces flying.
Attach or remove the watch band as needed to provide more control as you make repairs.

Conclusion

After reading the safety requirements and powering off your watch you're ready to start your repairs.
