Heat an iOpener and lay it on the bottom edge of the back glass for two minutes.

Apply a suction handle to the center of the back glass's bottom edge, as close to the edge as possible.

Pull up on the suction handle with strong, steady force until a gap forms between the back glass and frame.

Insert the tip of an opening pick into the gap.

The back glass is secured with adhesive around the perimeter of the frame. Use this picture as a reference while you separate the adhesive.

Slide the opening pick along the bottom edge to separate the adhesive.

Use high‑concentration (>90%) isopropyl alcohol and a coffee filter (or lint‑free cloth) to clean up any thermal pad residue from the board and cover.

Allow the alcohol to dry completely before continuing.
