Express caution when opening the case, as it contains small and delicate components. Make sure to discharge the battery to at least 25% to reduce the risk of a fire if the battery is punctured. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
After completing the repair, you may want to calibrate your battery to ensure the best performance.
