2 steps

Removing the back cover
Carefully disconnect the back cover from the enclosure frame. At the bottom, there’s a small slot where you can insert your fingernail or a tool.

Gradually disconnect the back cover from your device.

Take the back cover off of your device.

Attaching the back cover
Put the back cover back on.

Use your finger to press it onto the entire frame so all the clips on the back cover click into place on the enclosure.
