    • This step requires the removal of the warranty sticker. Removing the sticker will void the warranty. According to the FTC removing this will not void your warranty.

    • Locate the sticker in the battery compartment labeled: "En: Warranty Void if Seal Damaged."

    • Remove the sticker using the PSP Opening Tools.

    • Under the sticker is a 5mm Phillips screw needed in the next step.

    Beware that some models of PSP 2000 (mine is a limited edition Crisis Core FF7 silver version, so I suppose it is related to it being a japanese PSP) have 2 minute TORX screws (T1? T2?) instead of the 2x 4mm Phillips pointed in orange around the USB port.

    • Gently pry the front bezel away from the casing using a PSP opening tool.

    • Start on the right hand side of the PSP bezel, and carefully work the tool around the side.
