Step 1 Battery



• Placing the device on its back with the BRV-HD logo facing up, remove the eight 5mm hexagon 2.0 screws on the front panel.
• Make sure the device is turned off before starting.
Step 2

• Lift the front panel off of the speaker using a plastic opening tool.
Step 3

Step 4
• Lift the back panel off of the device with a plastic opening tool.
Step 5
• Turning the device on its side, unscrew the four 15mm hexagon 2.0 screws on the charging port panel.
Step 6

Step 7
• Place the device on its front.
• Loosen the four 12mm Phillips screws in the four corners with a J1 screwdriver.
• Loosen the two 8mm Phillips screws in the center with a J1 screwdriver.
• These screws are difficult to reach and will require a screwdriver extension piece.
Step 8
• Pull off the rubber sleeve surrounding the speaker using your hands.
• There is adhesive binding the sleeve to the speaker and force will be required to remove the sleeve.
Step 9
• Lift the black covering off of the speaker using both hands.
• Loose screws that you were unable to remove with the screwdriver will be removed when you lift off the black covering.
Step 10
• Remove the four 12mm Phillips screws securing the two battery brackets with a J1 screwdriver.
• Move any wires aside to have better access to the screws securing the battery.
Step 11
• Remove the two brackets that hold down the battery using your hands.
Step 12
• Use the plastic opening tool to lift up the battery.
• Remove the battery using your hands.
• The wires connecting the battery to the motherboard are still plugged in. Avoid pulling on the battery or these wires may break.
Step 13
• Disconnect the wire attaching the battery to the motherboard.
• There is green glue on the wire ports preventing the wires from falling out. Peel and remove this glue as necessary.
• Be careful when pulling out the wires from their ports. The metal stems attached to the ports can break. A spudger or tweezers may help.
