    • Heat an iOpener and lay it on the top left foot for one minute.

    • Alternatively, you can use a hair dryer on the Low heat setting to soften the adhesive.

    • If you're using a hair dryer, only heat the feet a few seconds at a time or you may warp the plastic.

    • The foot should come up without much force. If it feels stuck, apply more heat and try again.

    • Insert the point of a spudger under an end of the foot.

    • Push the spudger underneath the foot and lift until you can grip it with your fingers.

    • Peel the foot up and remove it.

    • Repeat the previous two steps to remove the remaining feet.

    • If you're just replacing the battery, you only need to remove the feet along the top edge.

    • To install the feet during reassembly:

    • Use a pair of angled tweezers to peel up and remove all the plastic film from the foot recesses.

    • If you're installing new feet, remove them from their backing and firmly press them into place.

    • If you're reusing the feet, use a strip of double-sided tape to secure them in their recesses.
