5. Step 4
  Remove the round piece by taking the axils of the circular piece out of the holes located in the center of the square piece.
  
  Make sure the circular piece correctly fits into the rectangular piece while laying flat. If it does not do this the circular piece is facing the wrong way and will need to be removed, turned around, and reconnected.
