Begin the process by making sure that the dock is disconnected and the power is turned off.
Start by using the plastic opening tool on the side opposite the dock/ charging port. Begin to open the device along the short sides of the tablet.
When you have reached the side with the charging/ dock port be gentle with the opening tool due to the thinner plastic that could be broken with excessive force.
Once the opening tools have completely made their way around the device use the spudger to separate the back panel from the screen and expose the inside.
