| + | [* icon_caution] The front panel is attached with clips, and there are several ribbon cables connecting it to the rest of the phone. Your goal here is to release the clips and ***open the phone only enough to disconnect the cables***. Go slowly and carefully to avoid damage. |
| [* icon_note] Make sure the suction cup is firmly attached to the front panel assembly near the home button. | |
| [* black] While holding the iPhone down with one hand, pull up on the suction cup to slightly separate the home button end of the front panel from the rear case. | |
| [* black] With a plastic opening tool, gently pry the edges of the rear case down, away from the front panel assembly, while you pull up with the suction cup. | |
| [* icon_caution] Take your time and apply firm, constant force. The 5s front panel assembly is a much tighter fit than most devices. |
