    • Separate the battery from the chassis by sliding the nylon spudger under the battery along the 3 glue strips. The glue needs to be gradually separated. The battery will lift free once the glue has been separated.

    • There are 3 glue strips holding the battery to the chassis: One under the blue ribbon cable, one under the center of the battery, and one under the battery by the plug.

    • While slight deformation is normal, do not overly bend the battery.

    • The glue needs to be gradually separated. Slow, persistent work with the spudger will be effective but can take an extended period of time.
