Use blunt nose tweezers or your fingers to peel each stretch-release pull tab away from the battery.

Slowly pull the strips straight away from the battery, keeping a low angle to the frame.

Give the strips plenty of time to stretch. If a strip breaks off, try to retrieve it and continue pulling.

If you removed all 12 stretch-release adhesive strips, skip down three steps.

If any strips broke off, follow the next two steps for an alternative method to remove the battery.
