The next two steps show how to remove a battery that's secured by stretch release adhesive.

Use tweezers to pull on the battery adhesive strip's pull tab until you can grip it with your fingers.

While holding the battery in place, pull the strip out slowly and steadily at a low angle. Give it plenty of time to stretch and un-stick from under the battery.

You can also wrap the adhesive strip around a spudger and "roll" it for a more consistent pull.

If the adhesive strip breaks off, try to retrieve it using your fingers and continue pulling—but don’t pry under the battery.

If you can't retrieve a strip, don't worry! Remove as much adhesive as possible and skip down two steps for an alternate method.
