How do I remove the cover?

You twist (rotate) to remove the lid and access the inside of the unit. Be aware that this is only a smoke detector and NOT also a carbon monoxide detector.

Ordinarily you don't need to 'remove the cover', you merely unlock the entire housing from the mounting base and the battery immediately accessible for changing. It does look like somehow you can release a couple of locking tabs that are either side of the battery compartment to release the two parts of the housing from each other.

The cover should be removable by holding the base (back flat disc-shaped panel) securely in 1 hand while gently twisting the cover a quarter turn from the base (back) of the unit, like opening a jar. I hope this helps.

you can only change 9V battery by rotating the unit to detach from wall mount plate.

you just have to press in on both sides with a little force, that is where the tabs are. By pressing the tabs in you should be able to then lift the cover off.

Remove? No. But the cord should probably be disconnected. The cover has a short (3 inch?) rat-tail that connects to power. The cover is difficult to get on, although no more so than any other cover I've used. I just would not want to remove and reinstall daily. :-)

It's been a looong time since I had the item. You are looking at the bottom. There should be a cover, either flip up, slide off or held in place with a small screw. hope this helps

I just did it, but it was not obvious. The people who say to remove the silicone cover first are right. The key is that you have to realize that the silicone cover is one big piece -- I kept trying to find a seam to separate it. Instead, hold the case as if you were looking at the phone, and bend back the silicone cover at the corners (away from you). Do that on all 4 corners of the screen -- you'll need to stretch it a bit, but it will come off. Then, you'll just have the hard inner case, which is opened by popping the 2 tabs on the side and the 1 at the top.

Dremmel/grind down the top cover retaining pin, so that you can remove it completely. You can get a new pin later if you want to go back.

Remove the bottom cover. There is a little slot on the top of the cover closest to the red power button.

You pry the cover off. A flat head screwdriver fits into a slot on the side(s) -- insert the tip and twist lightly - the cover pops off and then it snaps back into place when you're done.

The end is screwed on, so you just twist the end off, remove the tip, slip a new one on and screw back on the cover.

There is a plate covering the screws. You pull off the plate, screw it in and replace the cover plate. Quite simple.

The cover on mine was VERY VERY difficult to pull off. (And mine is not silent, by the way)

Just be sure you remove the little screws, it should pop right off. There should be one on top and one on each side and a long one on the bottom.(Just remember they're on the back part of the cover!) Hope this helps.

You'll need to remove the belt clip first. Then, with a flat head screw driver pry the bottom of the back cover off. There is a small area to place the screw driver, just apply a little pressure and it should pop off easily.

Use a pair of pliers and gently twist the knock-outs. They are scored so they'll snap off. The cover should close all the way and latch after you close it.
