| + | [* icon_caution] Turn on your Steam Deck and allow the battery to discharge ***completely***, as a charged lithium-ion polymer battery can be dangerous if accidentally punctured. |
| + | [* icon_note] As an extra precaution, Valve recommends putting your Steam Deck into ***battery storage mode*** within the BIOS before starting any internal repairs. [guide|149962|Read how to do that here]. |
| + | [* black] Power down your Steam Deck and unplug any cables. |
| + | [* icon_caution] If you have a microSD card installed, ***make sure to remove it*** before opening the Steam Deck. If you attempt to remove the back cover with it still installed, [post|744361|it could snap right in half|new_window=true]. |
| + | [* icon_note] During your repair, it can be helpful at times to lay the Steam Deck face-down in its case to protect the thumbsticks and prevent wobble. |
