    • Pry the device open with the plastic opening tool.

    • There are two clips that help prevent the front panel from separating.

    There is also a small corner piece, coloured the same as camera body, at the battery compartment corner which will also fall out. be careful not to loose it - it’s a bit fidly to fit back when re-assembling, but logcal. The Ifixit tweezers where a great help in locating it back on its pins.
