      • Use a Jimmy to lift the cover directly up off of the locating pins.

      • Though a metal opening tool is shown in the image, we recommend using plastic opening tools to minimize any cosmetic damage.

      • Remove the back cover.

      • If you encounter resistance when lifting the cover, revisit the screws to see if any of them are still threaded on to the device.
