      • Carefully peel the front side of the shell away.

      • As you lift the front shell, be careful to not pull too hard since there is a spring attached to the shell and the camera body.

      • Using a set of tweezers, detach the spring from the body. The spring will retract into the black and gray ring on the front shell.
