Do not remove the rubber ring ontop, the adhesive may weaken (alikemine, which barely sticks on) whenyou attempt to replace it.

Step 4 — Separating the cap and Midframe

Without removing the Jimmy tool,rotate the top (still upside down)clockwise, and the bottom counterclockwise. The two pieces willseparate from each other.

Take note of the location of this tab,as seen held by the ReversedTweezers. Mine broke off because Iwas too rough bending it back up,but you might need to lightly bend itup to retain the chargers ability tostay closed during transport.

Step 5 — Using the Screwdriver

Remove the four marked screwsfrom their holes with your smallscrewdriver...

Step 6 — Don't lose your screws!

...Making sure that you place themin a screw tray or safe place of sortsuntil you are ready to reassemblethe Charging Pad.

Step 7 — Separation of the Midframe and Base

Gently separate the two pieces. Here you will find the powerboard.

Warning: DO NOT try to remove the powerboard unless you intend on resoldering the chargingcoils. The back of the power board is completely blank, so the only replaceable components arethe chips on the face you see here.
