Remove the stretch release adhesive

Use blunt nose tweezers to grip the black pull tab on one of the adhesive strips through its cutout in the frame.
Grip the entire length of the strip's pull tab and pull it slowly, evenly, and at a low angle out from underneath the battery cell. Twist your tool to wrap the strip around itself as you pull.
Give the strip plenty of time to stretch. Avoid dragging it over the frame as you pull.
If you're using your fingers to remove the strip, re-grip it often to avoid it stretching unevenly and tearing.
Repeat for the other five strips accessible from the trackpad recess.
If a strip breaks off, try to retrieve it from under the battery. If you can't retrieve it, don't worry! Move on to the next step to remove the other strips, then keep reading for an alternate method to remove the stuck battery cells.
