2. Step 4
  First: To separate the top cover from the body, insert a spudger between the two halves.
  
  Gently twist the spudger until the two halves separate. Do this in multiple spots around the perimeter of the cover to distribute the pressure.
  
  DO NOT PULL HALVES APART. There are wired connections inside that must be disconnected before halves can be fully separated.
