    • Carefully lift the battery from the side nearest the four gold contact pins, but don't try to fully remove it yet.

    • At this point, the battery remains connected via four wires to the power supply board.

    • Carefully desolder the four wires from the power supply board in order to completely detach the battery. There is very little room for the soldering iron without damaging the case or the board; you may want to remove the board first.

    • For help with soldering, see the soldering guide.

    • Alternatively, you may remove the battery and power supply board together, without any soldering, but access requires some additional disassembly while carefully leaving the battery connected via the wires the entire time.

Anyone know where to find the speaker for replacement?

Die Anleitung ist Fehlerhaft! Der Akku ist im SLM2 Festgelötet, in der Anleitung kein Wort davon und auch die Bilder sind damit Falsch.

Robert - crwdns2934203:0crwdne2934203:0

(englisch version below)

Scheinbar eine Verwirrung, es gibt verschiedene Ausführungen des selben Models. Es scheint als sie im amerikanischen die Soundlink mini 2 mit steckbaren Akku verkauft worden und die gelötete in Europa.

It seems there is some confusion ongoing, there are different versions of the same model. It seems likely in Amerika the Soundlink mini 2s battery is unplugable, as the european version is soldered.

Raphael Krug -

Nachtrag! Das ist die Anleitung vom Mini 1 und somit Falsch Deklariert.

The German guy (Robert) seems incorrect. He claims this teardown is for the original Bose MiniSoundlink I. I just confirmed it is indeed a teardown for Bose Mini Soundlink II by checking the model number of my own Soundlink II with the teardown photos showing the model number (in steps 3 & 4). Both show model number 088796., confirming this is Soundlink II.
