  Pry the battery up slowly with steady force to release the adhesive.
  
  Don't bend or crease the battery—apply steady force and give the adhesive time to release.
  
  If it feels stubborn, apply a few drops of adhesive remover or high-concentration (90% or higher) isopropyl alcohol to the battery side of the pick while it's inserted and allow it to run under the battery. Be careful not to spill it elsewhere in the controller.
  
  If you're using adhesive remover, follow these preparation steps first.
  
  Remove the battery.
